Serving communities across Western & Northeastern Uganda

About REI

Rural Care Empowerment International (REI) is a community-driven nonprofit organisation serving vulnerable populations across Western and Northeastern Uganda.

Our story

RuralCare Empowerment International (REI) was founded in May 2018 by Mr. Gerald Nasasira and Dr. Beingana Gilbert, together with a committed team of volunteers. Driven by the urgent need to address poverty in rural areas, the organization began its work in the villages of Western Uganda and has since expanded to Northeastern Uganda. Today, REI collaborates with over 100 villages, empowering communities to identify their own challenges and develop sustainable solutions.

We work with:
• Local leaders and mobilizers
• Youth and women groups
• Government and community stakeholders

Through community dialogues, training, and partnership-building, we create pathways for long-term development and resilience
