Direct connections between giving and making a difference.

Every time a supporter of Helping Uganda Schools makes a donation they can be sure their support helps the lives of people who are constrained by lack of opportunity, poverty or oppression.  In a complicated world, where it is hard to know how best to respond to global challenges and gross inequality, HUGS provides a direct connection between those who have, and those that have not. 100% of donor’s money is spent on projects to improve the lives of others and none is spent on administration.

 
Here are pictures which show, some of the ways you have helped HUGS to make a difference over the last year through these direct connections.

If you have any friends, colleagues, or relatives who you think would like to support us, please forward this message and ask them to consider making a donation.


The beautiful new special needs school, St Francis de Sales, opens in August specifically to provide educating to young children with hearing loss.


HUGS Provides a meal a day and basic equipment, such as shoes, for children in the KosOvo slum in Kampala. Without your support they would not be able to attend school.


Teacher training and science equipment for the pupils at the Asili Girls School in Lira.  Better education in science means better further jobs and emancipated women.


New bed frames for the Girls dormitory at Little Shepherd School.  Girls education is improved with residential facilities, restful safe sleep and ability to study by electric light. 


The pre-school children at Little Shepherd School queue for lunch whilst their headmaster, Felix, celebrates the birth of his son. HUGS sponsored Felix's higher education.


Helping people with disability. Yayeeri, a student without sight, graduates as a social worker, sponsored by HUGS donations. Meanwhile the bullocks at Good Shepherd Special Needs School, fatten ready for market. A HUGS funded income generation project.

Thank you for all your continued support
