Brighter futures in northern Uganda through farming and education.
In remote villages of northern Uganda, children are held back by hunger and limited access to early education.
Because hunger, limited education and a lack of money trap people in poverty across northern Uganda, we work with communities to develop sustainable farming practices, provide access to early education, and strengthen the local economy, so they become resilient, thrive and give hope to others.
Join us in supporting vulnerable families and building stronger, more resilient communities.
We focus on Farming, Education and Enablement
Practical, community-led solutions that make a lasting difference.
We provide seeds so farmers can grow enough to feed their families and develop from subsistence farmers to farming as a business. We support communities as they start and run nursery schools, giving young children the best start in life and freeing up parents to work on their farms. By funding skills training projects, youth and young adults, who are equipped with income-generating skills.
In times of emergency, we provide food and medicine when it's urgently needed.
We use technology to plan, manage, and monitor our projects, making sure we reach the people who need support most and can measure the difference we’re making.
We work directly with village communities in northern Uganda
Northern Uganda was torn apart by two decades of conflict. The lives and livelihoods of the Acholi people were destroyed.
We work in villages near the towns of Gulu and Kitgm - places deeply affected by displacement and the war - supporting farmers and their families through farming, early education and strengthening the local economy. What began in 2008 with a few farmers has grown into long-term partnerships that help communities recover, thrive, and shape their own futures.
Our impact
In 2014, Nighty was facing unimaginable hardships. Unable to feed her family, her children were forced to eat grass and insects to survive. She had no possessions other than a single saucepan and a seven-litre jerry can. Nighty and her children slept on straw scattered on the floor, sharing their space with chickens and using rags for blankets.
With some seeds, training and a lot of encouragement, Nighty's life began to change. Today, she has her own bedroom, a bed, and a mosquito net to protect her from malaria. Her children go to school and Nighty earns money by raising goats and chickens.
Nighty's transformation is inspirational. Her journey from extreme poverty to self-sufficiency keeps us motivated.
Join us as we help as many others as we can, providing them with the tools and support they need to build better futures.
