Gift a future to youth in Uganda

Greetings from Lira, Uganda. While we are very thankful for the support you have provided over the years, education is a powerful tool for breaking the cycle of poverty and creating opportunities for a better future.

 By donating to this project, you have helpd to provide young people in Uganda with the skills and knowledge they need to achieve their dreams. 

We are excited to announce that we are instituting a new scholarship for the most talented youth in the "Gift a Future" project. This scholarship will provide financial assistance to students who have demonstrated exceptional talent and dedication in their studies, helping them to pursue their educational goals and achieve success.

 We believe that this scholarship will help to encourage and support young people in their educational pursuits, and we hope that you will join us in making it a reality.

 We appeal to you to donate to this project and help us make a difference in the lives of young people in Uganda. Your donation can make a significant impact on the lives of these young people, and we believe that together we can create a more equitable and just society.

 Please consider a new donation and/or invite other friends and family to join us

Thanks again for your continous support 

18 months of the Gift a Future Campaign! Since our last report, we have participated in the Little by Little Campaign and #GivingTuesday. Our donors have continued to support the students at St. John Bosco Vocational Training School.

As the lives and livelihoods have slowly returned to the pre-COVID norm, education in many African countries are yet to fully recover. Already challenged education systems are further burdened by the inflation crisis that has been experienced across the world, further complicating parents ability to fInance their children’s education.

For this reason, scholarships continue to be an invaluable way to improve educational outcomes. Even further, the emphasis on future employability as part of education means that students at the vocational school can contribute to their households in a more meaningful way upon graduation. By donating to this project you are not only giving a future to the student by subsidising their fees, but also to their family members, and even their communities.

Thank you to all of our donors! We hope to keep this spirit of generosity burning bright as we gear up for the next Little by Little campaign in September.
