Sub-Saharan African Relief Program

Anything for A Smile supports vulnerable refugee populations across Sub-Saharan Africa through targeted humanitarian and medical initiatives.

ALMA! (AFRICAN LIVES MATTER ABSOLTELY!)

Uganda hosts the largest refugee populations in Africa. The border region of Northern Uganda and South Sudan has been plagued by more than 30 years of on-and-off conflict, from Joseph Kony's child soldiers to the independence struggle in South Sudan to tribal conflicts that have displaced thousands.

Our work focuses on regions experiencing prolonged conflict, particularly along the Uganda-South Sudan border where thousands have been displaced due to decades of instability. Uganda hosts the largest refugee population in Africa, with many lacking access to basic medical care.

Our Impact:

  • Conducted medical relief camps serving hundreds of patients in remote border regions

  • Provided food assistance to refugees from Somalia, Ethiopia, and Eritrea

  • Implemented hospital and school improvement projects, including therapeutic environment enhancements

  • Delivered dental and medical care to underserved communities in Uganda and Western Congo

Since 2016, we've expanded our refugee support services throughout the region, addressing critical needs often overlooked by global media attention.
