About MV Foundation

MusokeV Foundation (MVF) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit humanitarian organization dedicated to reducing gender-based violence (GBV) in Uganda's underserved communities. Violence against women and girls is one of the world's most common, persistent, and devastating human rights violations. It could be physical, emotional, or sexual in nature. Violence against girls and women occurs at all levels of society in Uganda, with survivors suffering psychological, physical, social, and cognitive consequences that impede their mental and physical development. MVF hopes to achieve its goal of reducing GBV among girls and women by increasing awareness of GBV and incident reporting strategies through the Rape Prevention and Education (RPE) program in collaboration with the Rotaract Club of Nakivale, CDFU, and local community leaders, schools, and organizations. 

Our Mission

To achieve a society free from Gender-Based Violence (GBV), through the creative participation of the youth and women of Southwest Uganda.
