About Us in Child Africa
We are a non-profit organization, since 1991 dedicated to
help disadvantaged children in East Africa to enhance their
lives through education. With support from sponsor parents
we help hundreds of children in Uganda, Africa, with food,
clothing, medicine, education and sometimes even homes. With
support from sponsor parents around the world, we hope we
will help many thousands of children in the years to come.
WARNING:
We are NOT hiring any people as our agents.
If you have received an e-mail in that respect, someone is trying to swindle us. Please do not answer them.
Child Africa Charity Organization Staff
Julie Solberg
Founder and Managing Director
of Child Africa for Africa |
 |
Julie Solberg
is a successful woman in business as well as in the fulfillment
of her dreams. She has managed different companies in
Africa over the years and is now at the helm of Child Africa
charity organization in Uganda and Kenya. It is during
her frequent trips to Africa that she started visualizing
her mission - a burning desire to help the children of
this continent. Her vision became reality in 1991 when
she and her husband Rino founded "Solberg Children's Help Organization",
now renamed Child Africa
and registered as a non-profit organization. In Child Africa
Julie can perform the work that touches her heart the
most - giving unfortunate children the key to a brighter
future through education.
Julie’s simple message
to you:
"It takes so little to reach out and touch the
soul of a child. So if you are reading about us right
now, just reach out your hand and touch one tiny soul."
