Game Connect Africa

Game Connect Africa is an African-led, Christian-based community development organization, committed to serving the community through sports-based concepts to empower the church, vulnerable children, youth and women across Uganda. With a Kingdom mindset and through innovative play-based programs, we are restoring hope, dignity and building brighter futures in disadvantaged rural and humanitarian settings. We use games and sports to penetrate and spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the communities hard to reach with the traditional methods of evangelism. The power of unity through sports is fully exploited as Game Connect Africa uses the different sports for development concepts to empower the church for better service to the vulnerable communities with love and dignity. Since our inception, we have focused our work on partnering with churches, schools and rural communities in Uganda to develop initiatives that pave the pathway out of ultra-poverty to economic self-sufficiency. Through partnerships we resource, guide, train, and equip ultra-poor families and churches to make empowering decisions, access new opportunities, and shape their future. Our 2025-2027 strategic plan focus is on consolidating the existing partnerships and partnering with more schools and churches as a hub of community engagement in 20 villages in Eastern Uganda with Interventions launched around Church capacity building, Education, Community health, Food security, WASH, Financial literacy and Livelihoods. Our work and the subsequent success is a result of cross-cultural collaboration between our staff and church partners, schools, local government, and experts from around the globe all working together. By engaging the church leaders and other community leaders in our mission and vision, inclusive communities’ participation and unity of purpose is being realized thereby responding to the Great Commission, Great Command and Great Concern for wholistic ministry through sports. We invite you to join us on this purposeful journey as the Lord leads to make a difference in the lives of these vulnerable people and communities affected by ultra-poverty for God’s glory and Kingdom expansion through wholistic ministry. Together we can create a lasting impact
