Welcome to ECCO Uganda
Eastlander Child Care Organization Uganda (ECCOU) is a Christian-based organization established in 2015 and initially registered as a Community-Based Organization (CBO) in Kirika sub-county and Kibuku district, Uganda. Later, it was registered as a non-government organization by Mr. Waira Samuel Joel and four other individuals who recognized the importance of tackling the challenges faced by orphans, disadvantaged children, and people living with aids in the community. With commitment, devotion, and determination, ECCOU is dedicated to assisting a few orphans and disadvantaged children in the villages of Kibuku and the broader region of Uganda.
