Equipping Local Leaders
to care for their Communities
MAMO works alongside local leaders, schools and partners
to support the health, learning and well-being of children.
Love expressed through practical care.
WHO WE ARE
MAMO — Medical Assistance & Missional Outreach — shares the love of Jesus by caring for our neighbours in Uganda and beyond through medical assistance, training, resources, educational support and the proclamation of the Word of God.
We work with local leaders and school communities to respond to practical needs and strengthen local capacity.
OUR MISSIONS
A shared experience of service and growth
MAMO’s mission trips bring U.S. team members and Ugandan communities together to serve, learn and build relationships. Working alongside local people, teams contribute practical skills, training and resources in response to needs identified with village, school and church partners. The hope is for the work to strengthen local capacity and bring lasting benefit to children, families and communities.
The experience also has a lasting impact on those who travel to serve. Sharing daily life and working side by side with Ugandan partners can challenge assumptions, deepen relationships and reshape how team members see service and community. Many return home with a changed perspective and a commitment to carry what they have learned into their lives long after the trip ends.
Mission 2025: Capacity Building in Budiba and Bugobi schools.
In 2025, the MAMO team worked at Budiba Christian School in Namutumba District and Bugobi Christian School in Namayingo District, Eastern Uganda. Both schools hosted teacher workshops focused on children’s ministry and curriculum planning.
The team also supported practical school improvements and distributed clothes, shoes, toys, and books donated by our friends and partners in the United States.
Equipping Local Leaders
to care for their
Communities
MAMO works alongside local leaders, schools
and partners to support the health, learning
and well being of children.
OUR WORK
Practical support. Local leadership.
MAMO’s public website describes its work through three broad themes:
Health and First Aid
Children need to feel safe and well to make the most of their time at school. MAMO supports school communities with practical health knowledge, first-aid training, and essential resources, helping staff recognise health concerns and respond when a child needs care. We work towards safer learning environments where children can learn, grow and thrive.
Capacity Building
Teachers, school leaders and community members are central to children’s learning, health and support. MAMO works alongside the people who serve children and families in their own schools and communities, strengthening their knowledge, skills and confidence. By supporting practical, community-led approaches, we aim to help build lasting capacity around every child.
Empowerment
Strong schools help children build the knowledge and confidence they need for the future. MAMO works alongside school communities to strengthen learning through practical support, teaching resources and opportunities to build skills and knowledge. By supporting local improvements that meet everyday needs, we aim to help schools and communities grow stronger over time.
HOW WE WORK
Built on relationship, shaped by community.
Our vision is to see local leaders equipped to meet the medical and spiritual needs of their communities. We work towards this by building local capacity, expanding knowledge and strengthening partnerships—placing local people at the heart of the work on the ground.
