  • As we reflect on 2024, we are filled with gratitude for your support and trust. This year, we have made incredible strides in empowering communities and creating opportunities for a brighter future. With your support, our income-generating initiatives in the Rwampara District have equipped hundreds of individuals with the tools and training needed to build sustainable livelihoods. From learning to produce reusable sanitary pads to mastering soap making and sustainable farming techniques, these programs are helping people create better futures for themselves and their families!

  • 📚 We are thrilled to share that we donated over 20,000 books this year! These were distributed to seven schools beyond those in the Rwampara District, reaching thousands—if not tens of thousands—of students. Now filling classrooms with opportunities for learning and discovery, these books are helping children broaden their horizons and achieve their full potential.

  • At Nyakabaare Primary School, teacher housing is more than just shelter—it’s the foundation of a stable, thriving school community. Thanks to a $15,000 grant, we’ve made a strong start, but we still need to raise $10,000 to complete this transformative project. We’ve seen the impact firsthand. At another school we supported, teacher housing reduced absenteeism from 40% to just 5%. The result? Happier teachers, stronger classrooms, and students who thrive. Now it’s Nyakabaare’s turn to experience this incredible change. 📚 Your donation can make it happen: ➡ Teachers can live on-site, providing steady, reliable support to their students. ➡ Students benefit from consistent instruction, leading to improved confidence and exam results. ➡ The entire community becomes stronger, more hopeful, and better equipped for the future. 💙 Be the final piece of this transformation. Every dollar counts, and your generosity will create lasting change for teachers, students, and the entire community: https://lnkd.in/gt3R9rj7 #EducationMatters #SupportTeachers #AfricaStrong #DonateToday #TransformLives

  • We have incredible news to share from Nyakabaare Primary School in Uganda! Thanks to your generosity and a $15,000 grant from the South Side Legacy Fund, we’re building on-site housing for teachers—a project that will transform lives for both teachers and students. Right now, our teachers face long daily commutes on foot, often battling harsh weather and rough roads. Nine out of fourteen teachers live over three miles away, making it difficult for them to reach school consistently and leaving students without the support they need. 💡 You can help us change this. Your donation will bring six more teachers on-site, providing them with a safe place to live and ensuring students receive the quality education they deserve. 💙 Please donate today to help us complete this critical project. Together, we can give these children a brighter future: https://lnkd.in/gt3R9rj7 #AfricaStrong #SupportEducation #TeachersMatter #DonateNow #MakeADifference
