CMW PROJECTS
In our work as CWM, we are also supporting and founding different Projects all over Uganda, to improve the livelihoods of our members and people close to them. For that we differ between: CWM-Projects, which are group or individual Projects of CWM- Members and are used to increase their income. E.g. Piggery-, Farming-, or Crafting-Projects. Supported-Projects, which are in the most cases from outstanding people and are helped by CWM. E.g. Hospitals, Schools, or Kindergartens.

CWM Carpentry – Workshop
In CWM carpentry workshops young people, mostly young men, have the chance to get crafting skills. With these skills they are able to find a job and earn their own money. This offer is mainly for those, who could not finish their school education and don´t have any perspective for their future.
CWM Catering Services
To bring up a Catering Service Project is in the beginning somehow difficult and expensive because of all the equipment you have to buy for it. But after it has been growing, it will be a good project to get money out of it. Until now Catering Services have just appeared as group projects.
