Drum Beat of Uganda

Drum Beat of Uganda assists HIV/AIDS orphaned, war conflict affected children and those from very poor backgrounds to develop their talents in performance arts. As well as their training as musicians, singers and dancers in the performance group, the organization provides a home to accommodate them, pays their school fees, feeds them and meets their day-to-day requirements.

The Drum Beat of Uganda Organization, led by Director Kibi Kaggwa Patrick, is presently helping 40 orphaned children ranging in ages 12 through 19 from all the above mentioned categories. It is the only organization in southern Uganda that caters to orphans by giving them a life self sustaining skill.

The children are not limited to only study performance related ventures. They are also trained in other skills that can lead them to professionalism.
