We are committed to transforming lives by raising awareness, supporting education, improving health, and spreading hope in disadvantaged communities.
The Michael Silwanyi Charity Foundation (MSCF) is the charity arm of Mission Africa Safaris, a respected provider of safari experiences across Uganda, Rwanda, Kenya, and Tanzania. MSCF was created in loving memory of Prince Michael Silwanyi to address the critical challenges underserved communities face in Uganda and East Africa. Guided by a mission of compassion and action, the foundation spreads joy and love while uplifting the lives of children, youth, parents, and disadvantaged communities.
The Michael Silwanyi Charity Foundation collaborates with trusted partners and local Christian churches, including the Roman Catholic and Pentecostal congregations, to implement impactful initiatives. Rooted in faith, the foundation uses every opportunity to share the gospel of Christ while carrying out its mission to bring hope to those in need. Our projects focus on critical areas such as education, access to clean water, healthcare, and sustainable development.
Our work is concentrated in regions like Tororo, Mayuge, and areas surrounding Uganda’s national parks, where the need for support is most pressing. MSCF is dedicated to empowering communities and fostering brighter futures, from building educational opportunities to improving access to essential healthcare.
Through Mission Africa Safaris, MSCF also offers tourists a chance to make a meaningful impact during their travels. After experiencing the beauty and culture of Africa, tourists can identify a specific community cause or project they wish to support and provide funding to bring it to life. This unique model connects tourism with transformation, turning every journey into an opportunity to create lasting change.
A deep commitment to hope, resilience, and faith drives every Michael Silwanyi Charity Foundation initiative. Whether supporting children’s education, funding health interventions, or conducting community workshops, the foundation works tirelessly to address systemic challenges and uplift the most vulnerable. Together with our partners, supporters, and communities, we strive to build a legacy of compassion and opportunity in Prince Michael Silwanyi’s name.
Born into a loving family, Prince Michael Silwanyi was a beacon of hope and joy to those around him. His laughter filled rooms, and his innocent curiosity about the world was a reminder of life’s simple beauties. Tragically, before he could celebrate his first birthday, Michael succumbed to Binnyo (teething defect), a silent killer that preys on infants and remains primarily unacknowledged by the medical community.
Michael’s symptoms began subtly: swollen gums, feeding difficulties, diarrhoea, and relentless crying that spoke of his discomfort. His family sought medical attention, but the condition was misinterpreted as a common childhood illness. Doctors prescribed treatments that failed to address the underlying cause, and as time passed, Michael’s condition worsened. By the time the gravity of his condition was understood, it was too late to save him.
Prince’s untimely passing was a personal loss to his family and a stark illustration of a broader health crisis affecting countless infants. By sharing Michael’s story, we hope to raise awareness and mobilise efforts to ensure no other family endures such a profound loss. His legacy lives on through this charity foundation, established to honour his memory and to create awareness of the very disease that took his life.
MSCF works tirelessly to raise awareness about teething complications and dental health in infants.
Through this program, MSCF is working with communities to plant more trees as a measure to curb the effects of climate change
MSCF is supporting orphans, single mothers and fathers in poor rural communities in the project areas mentioned. Uganda’s economy depends largely on agriculture.
All children need to know that they are special and loved. Unfortunately, poverty and suffering doesn’t allow that love to flow easily
MSCF supports underprivileged children by offering scholarships from Nursery to University.
MSCF organizes community outreaches, seminars, counselling and psychological support to families affected by alcoholism and substance abuse.
The Michael Silwanyi Foundation works in Uganda. The main project area is Tororo and Mayuge Districts but the Foundation also supports projects within communities living close to National Parks in Uganda. These are our main areas of interest:
Your support can change lives. Whether it’s through a donation, volunteering your time, or sponsoring a child, you have the power to make a difference. Join us in our mission to transform futures and bring hope to communities in need.
The Micheal Silwanyi Charity Foundation is dedicated to supporting the education and formation of young seminarians and Pentecostal pastors. By providing scholarships and improving facilities at St. Pius X Seminary in Tororo, the foundation equips future spiritual leaders to serve their communities with wisdom and compassion.
The Michael Silwanyi Charity Foundation’s Child Sponsorship Program is a transformative initiative designed to uplift children in underserved communities. By addressing barriers to education, healthcare, and basic necessities, the program empowers children to thrive academically and personally.
Faith has the unique power to unite and inspire. In partnership with Nagongera Catholic Parish, the Michael Silwanyi Charity Foundation is leading the Mikera Village Church Project—a transformative initiative to build a spiritual home for the growing community in Uganda.
Water scarcity and poor sanitation pose critical challenges, impacting millions of lives daily. Communities often rely on contaminated water sources, leading to widespread waterborne diseases such as cholera, dysentery, and typhoid.
MSCF is leading efforts to address these issues by constructing boreholes and promoting hygiene education.
Education serves as a transformative tool and can unlock opportunities and foster equity. Yet, systemic barriers like poverty, gender inequality, and lack of infrastructure deny millions of children access to this fundamental right.
Through our scholarship program, MSCF presents a lifeline, removing financial obstacles and providing holistic support to unprivileged children in Uganda.
In rural Uganda, vulnerable groups such as orphans, widows, and single parents face significant challenges, from economic hardships to food insecurity. These struggles often perpetuate cycles of poverty and dependency. However, the Michael Silwanyi Children’s Foundation (MSCF) is leveraging agriculture as a powerful tool for transformation.
We are committed to spreading joy, love, and hope in disadvantaged communities across Uganda. We focus on education, health, clean water, agriculture, and community development while promoting the gospel of Christ.
