We operate in Uganda to support primary and secondary boarding education. We cover school fees, boarding, learning materials and provide medical and welfare support during term time and holidays so young people can focus on their education long-term, build secure futures and break cycles of poverty. Alongside this, we provide care for rescued dogs as part of our wider welfare work.
