Our History
Visionary PathWays, formerly known as Bukasa Girl Care Group (BGCG), was initiated in October 2019 by a group of teenage girls and community elders concerned about the challenges facing disadvantaged urban girls in Bukasa, Kijwa zone, and Namuwongo. We were officially formed on August 7th, 2019, and registered on September 8th, 2021.
On our 5th anniversary in August 2024, recognizing that both boys and girls face critical economic and health challenges, we rebranded to Visionary PathWays to expand our reach to serve all young people aged 15 to 30 years.
