In 2023, we once again spent most of our funds directly on programme delivery in Uganda. Of our total expenditure in the year, 87% was spent on charitable activities. This is due to our ongoing efforts to ensure overheads in the UK remain low to ensure maximum funds can be sent to Uganda.

What’s next?

Much has been achieved, but there is much more to do! Our vision remains: train people today so they will be able to support themselves tomorrow and in the future.
