Quarter Report GlobalGiving
Foundation 22STARS : report January 2026 - February 2026 – March 2026And April 2026
1. BUDGET
We have only received one donations through GlobalGiving, from our Sponsor Roberta Drell for the long term sponsorship of school fees of the child Nabirye Blessing Passionate she sponsors at our Foundation. We have not raised any other money through GlobalGiving. This is probably because most of our sponsors are European. And with the exchange rates, euro donations get exchanged into Pounds / USD and then back to Euro when send to us, a lot of money gets lost.
From the total donation of 320 USD donated by Roberta through GlobalGiving, the following fees were deducted by GlobalGiving:
• 9,60 USD processing fee
• 22,40 USD nonprofit support fee
This means that in the end, GlobalGiving disbursed 288 USD to us, which after currency conversion resulted in a final amount of 244,90 EURO received on our bank account.
Hence why we also urge European sponsors who like to donate in euros to rather do it directly over our website to us. That said we welcome more USA and UK sponsors to donate as they can also deduct it from their taxes it is a win win for both.
2. HOW WE SPEND THE MONEY
We have spent the money received on schoolfees. We have not received any other donation hence could not spend anything

Our mission is to empower families in Uganda to rise above poverty. We use an integrated approach and focus on the development of economic, social, natural, human, and cultural capital. 22STARS collaborates with communities in Acholi Quarter in the capital Kampala and Danida in the city of Jinja, who live in extreme poverty after having fled conflict zones in Northern Uganda and neighbouring countries.
4. ABOUT THE EDUCATION SYSTEM
In Uganda the education of a child starts with Nursery School (3 years), then Primary School (7 years) and then Secondary School (minimum 4 years) followed by a two-year Course. If a child has a high performance, then the child can also complete class 5 and 6 and join University. In quite a lot of cases children have a challenging home situation, we send then a primary school child to Boarding section.
