The Source Cafe, originally called Jemimah’s, was Kibo Group’s first sustainable development project in Uganda. The original missionaries who founded Kibo and the Source responded to the challenges and poverty they witnessed in Uganda with a faith-inspired, holistic approach to sustainable development. Since it’s conception 20 years ago through today, the Source supports Kibo’s sustainable development work in Uganda.
All of the Source’s profits are reinvested into our local community.
The Source provides 15 full-time jobs to locals, is managed by Ugandans, and supports nearly 100 local farmers and business owners. The Source’s pavilion also serves as community and educational center.
