HOPE. OPPORTUNITY. CONNECTION.
Help Our World One on One (HOW101) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that provides sponsorship for vulnerable children in Uganda and Kenya so that they can have access to education, mentors and healthcare. Our mission is to help them reach their full potential and inspire hope in their communities.
HOW101 works with community-based organizations in each country to connect one child to one sponsor because we know that both sides learn and grow from their relationship.
Child Sponsorship
Education is a pathway out of poverty because of the many opportunities it can create. We match donors who understand this, with children in need of support for school fees and requirements.
Underlying Support
Money for tuition and school supplies isn’t enough. These children need mentoring and support to be able to thrive. Our partner agencies in each country follow and support each child’s progress.
Help for Health
With over 230 children in our programs health issues continually arise — be it a broken bone, malaria, or a dental issue — we can make a real difference by being able to provide funds for their care. By donating to this fund, you ensure that monies will be available when needed for emergencies and whenever possible preventative care like new mosquito nets for beds.
Benevolent Fund
Our in-country partners have requested the establishment of a Benevolent Fund to provide assistance to families in dire need. This fund is intended to help families in extreme situations that might impact the child’s safety and well-being.

“I’ve been sponsoring George since he was 6 years old for his school fees. This is my 3rd reunion with him. He was born in a Kampala slum to a 15-year-old Mum. At 20, he excels in school, is a responsible young man, and has many goals including attending university to be a software engineer. He told me “Mum, you changed my life by sponsoring and loving me. I will succeed and I’m committed to life other young people up.” I’m so proud of him! My cup is overflowing with George — thank you HOW101 (help our world one on one) for this opportunity to make a difference in one life that will impact many lives.”
— Maureen O’Hare, HOW101 Sponsor
Since 1998…26 years of
growing together
It started with a women’s mission trip to Uganda in 1998 where it was apparent that all involved had something to give and learn from one another. We were not equipped to do anything big but we could begin to help one-by-one.
Our Team
Making it all work takes the collective efforts of ALL our sponsors, donors, and in-country partners, but we couldn’t do any of it without our core group of volunteers who stay true to the mission day-by-day.
