Uganda mission trips with Sole Hope

If you are looking for a mission trip to Uganda or a way to serve in Africa, a Sole Hope trip gives you a front row seat to what God is doing through simple, practical care. Many children in Uganda live with painful jigger infestations because they do not have safe shoes or access to basic foot care.

Sole Hope serves these children through footwashing, medical treatment, and protective shoes crafted by local artisans. When you join a short term mission trip with Sole Hope, you help children heal, you support local jobs, and you experience Uganda up close.

On this trip you are not a spectator. You are part of the story God is writing in Uganda.

What you will experience in Uganda

Meet the Sole Hope team, tour the spaces where healing happens, and see how every pair of shoes is crafted with care. You will hear stories from staff who serve children every day.
