From its onset in July 2024, Uganda’s mpox outbreak spread to more than 65% of districts, leaving thousands of families struggling to cope, families with children among the hardest hit. For many, recovery took weeks or even months, often at the cost of lost income, high medical bills, and mounting financial stress.
To ease this burden, UNICEF Uganda, with support from @MastercardFoundation and partnering with the Lutheran World Federation, launched a humanitarian cash transfer programme targeting families with children affected by Mpox.
The humanitarian cash transfer programme targeted1,300 vulnerable households in the most affected districts — Kampala, Luwero, Mukono, Nakasongola, and Wakiso.
The initiative provided timely financial assistance to help households meet urgent needs — from healthcare and food to transport — while supporting their path to recovery and long-term stability.
It also strengthened household resilience, ensuring children continue to access essential services even during health emergencies.
By tackling the economic strain that lingered even after recovery, the programme gave families the means to rebuild their lives with dignity and resilience.
