Helping Needy Children:
Children especially are subsumed within the poverty categories most often referred to such as households, communities, people – which means that there is a high tendency to focus on adult-related poverty while child problems are ignored, also because children have little power and influence within a group that contains adults.
Research reflects that children in abject problems can be recognized by rather elementary (as opposed to sophisticated) criteria. Top on the list is absence of basic necessities such as shelter, food, clothing and water. Equally important is the ‘human condition’ in terms of physical health
and parental care and protection. Schooling is high on the list as a critical criterion in determining who is extremely or modestly a vulnerable and disadvantaged child. School-related costs remain a major obstacle for children in abject poverty to access education.
The UNESCO 2003 study on Children in Abject Poverty in Uganda revealed that:
Ill health and inadequate health services remain critical challenges for children in abject poverty. This is aggravated by the living conditions of children in almost all the districts studied.

- providing some of the basic necessities like food and clothing
- basic health care,
