Our Story
Love Mercy was formed in 2010, when Australian Olympian Eloise Wellings met Ugandan Olympian and former child soldier, Julius Achon.
After competing in the Olympics and building a life in the USA, Julius returned home to Uganda. His community were suffering in famine, and Julius and Eloise vowed to help.

Love Mercy Foundation acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of Country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community. Our Australian office is on the lands of the Gweagal People of the Tharawal Nation. We pay our respect to their Elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today. Our team follows in their ancient footsteps as we seek the flourishing of land and community for the people of Northern Uganda.
This gift card funds a womanโs participation in an Income Generating Activity group, including financial literacy training, startup resources and ongoing support.
In order to weather the ups and downs of farming through the seasons, Income Generating Activities provide women the opportunity to build an alternative income source. In collaboration with other women in their community, participants start up small businesses that grow and become vital to long term, sustainable economic security. IGAs are self-driven, meaning women come up with many different business ideas, including rearing goats, beekeeping, catering, tailoring, and more.
Because of you, a woman begins a journey that will see her gain true income stability, allowing her to provide for herself and her family through whatever storms come her way. Your support gives her the resources to drive change in her own future, and begin a generational cycle of flourishing.
