Using social and food safety nets as a means to broaden food access and give food to the needy people who are unable to provide it for themselves as needed
Haba Na Haba Food Bank is a registered NGO (No. 0952) in Uganda that passionately works to alleviate hunger and strengthen local communities. The food bank was founded by Jessica Bagenda and Raymond Sseguya early in 2015 after which the two formed a one strategic partnership later that year which saw the organization rise greatly.
Currently it's fully recognized as a member of the Regional Food Banking Network No. 150051 with its headquarters in UAE Dubai and under the mentorship of Egypt Food Bank.
Food banking in Uganda has its origin from our founders who invested in farming. However, this incurred them losses due to the flooding of the market with lots of farm products exactly same as those they had.
Grappled with such an experience, they realized that a lot of food goes to waste like that and yet communities still go hungry. To solve that, Haba Na Haba Food Bank was born.

Support Our Cause
We work in a mission-driven environment with people passionate about making a difference and seeing how they're impacting communities.
Our charity organization had run out of food to provide to the children we support. Amid this dilemma, Haba Na Haba came in and gave us food and fruits in bulk. To us it was more than just food, it was hope and love.
I came to the city to earn a better life for my family. However, Kampala is so expensive that I barely buy food and groceries to keep me going. Thanks to you I'm living better and can still support my family back in the village.
I just wanted to thank you for the opportunity to volunteer. It was my first experience with Haba Na Haba and it definitely won't be my last. I've been able to witness first-hand how my efforts are helping those in need.
Haba Na Haba has supported us for the past two years. My two siblings and I lost our parents and I alone strived to keep us alive until the food bank came in and committed to giving us meals for two years now. Thanks
