OUR MISSION
To partner with the future of others who are in poverty and special need through no fault of their own to assist them in their self-determination to provide themselves with a better future.

OUR VISION
To provide research, resources and practical skills to assist the people by whatever means achievable to enable them to free themselves from the injustice of poverty imposed by others.

Quicken Trust is focussed on showing the love of Christ in action to the Kabubbu community in Uganda.

We aim to demonstrate this through the provision of the resources they lack and assist them in training and acquiring the knowledge and skills they need to sustain the projects commenced and provide for themselves.

OUR COMMITMENT TO YOU
We guarantee that 100% of your donation for a specific project received by Quicken Trust will be used, in full, in Kabubbu. Our administration costs are separately funded. When donations are given under Gift Aid the corresponding tax reclaimed will be used for the general purposes of the Trust and not necessarily for the specific project.

MAN HAS RESPONSIBILITY NOT POWER
A team of four specialists visited Uganda in February 2000 with 300 kilos of goods and materials on behalf of Quicken Trust following an earlier exploratory visit by the Trust in 1999.

Over 300 kilos of portable generator, sound system and video projection equipment, schoolbooks, resources, basic medicines, toys and clothes were taken on this visit.

Team members met all their own costs. Their skills included childcare, child welfare, education, counselling for families and the bereaved and business development

They visited Nursery Schools, Primary Schools, Secondary Schools, a Regional Health Centre and a prison. They met with community leaders, district leaders, health experts from Makerere University and the Minister of State for Primary Education and the Minister of State for Health.

The team’s visit was covered over two days on Ugandan television and radio.

The purpose of their visit was to research the needs of the community so they could share these with potential partners in the UK. Such was the response in the following 4½ months that in July 2000 a further visit took more help, resources and hope.
