01
Rescue
We find children living on the streets of Kampala and offer them a way out — a hand extended in love, not judgment.
Hope is Built through Action
We Shine a Light.
No child belongs on the street. We rescue Kampala's children and give them the education and care they deserve.
When we combine the compassion to rescue with the resources to educate, we transform lives. This is our theory of change: Rescue, Rehabilitate, Educate.

A Survivor's Promise
Born from the ashes, built on hope.
Tine on the Mountain was not born in a boardroom. It was born from the ashes of a painful childhood and the unbreakable spirit of one woman — our founder and Executive Director.
Her firsthand experience of street life shapes everything we do. We do not just see a child on the street; we see ourselves. And we know, with the right care and love, they too can move mountains.
