Did you know that the St. Lawrence School does not have a cafeteria or space for meals? Students eat outside on the ground. In 2015, we will begin a campaign to raise $150,000 to construct a multi-purpose room for dining and assemblies,  as well as additional classrooms for our growing student population.

We are proud that the St. Lawrence School is now ranked #2 out of 160 Government and private schools in the Nakasongola District. We want to continue our focus on teacher training to attract and maintain high quality teachers in our rural school.

This year we realized our dream of bringing running water to the students of the St. Lawrence School. Now, we want to build on this accomplishment by introducing a comprehensive W.A.S.H. (Water, Sanitation and Hygiene) program to Migyera.





Tailoring Talent
$100 Gift

 $50  Gift


Last year, several of our donors traveled to Uganda and taught sewing classes providing a skill that has enabled local women to move toward economic independence. We want to expand this popular program and give more women access to income generating opportunities.







Bountiful Baskets
$75 Gift

$30 Gift 


Our microfinance program helps women become economically independent. Your gift will help to make loans to women supporting families by weaving beautiful baskets for sale in Uganda and here in the U.S





Feeding the Family
$50 Gift

$25 Gift 


Give the gift of livestock and help improve a family’s future. Cows, chickens, goats and pigs are valuable commodities that can transform a family’s financial well-being through our microfinance programs. Our children's program is unique, not only does the child learn to raise an animal, but they learn how and why to repay a loan and to manage a personal savings account.
