Educating Uganda's Future Educators
|
|
|
We would be remiss if we aimed to transform a community without considering the coming generation that will be sustaining that community. Our children are torch-bearers that will carry the needed knowledge, faith, and training into the future.
This post is all about gratefulness for those children in Uganda, and for how we’ve been able to lift them up together.

Child Sponsor Highlight: Faith A.

Faith at Alpha & Omega Vocational Secondary School
|
|
There are few things more heartwarming than to see a student who dreams of being a teacher. Faith is a 14 year old student at Alpha & Omega Secondary School. No doubt inspired by her own school instructors, she loves the subject of English and wants to instruct others as an English teacher once she finishes her broader education.
|
|
|
|
Who have been the primary influences in her life to spark such an aspiration? What parts of her personality give her that disposition to the subject? How has she applied her interest in English toward writing, imagination, and creative expression?

|
These are some of the questions we may be able to ask on behalf of her tuition sponsor! Anyone, right now, can support her dreams and plan for self-sustainability through a $36/month sponsorship.
We currently have 28 other students just like her, with their own unique goals, waiting for a financial partner to lend a hand and boost them toward community-building and noble pursuits.

The Young Generation Leads the Way
|
|
When resources are scarce in a place like rural Uganda, everybody pitches in. In this short video, you can catch a glimpse of children planting seeds in our FAITH Gardens, pumping water from a TCI well, and carrying bushels of sticks used for protecting the village borders.

Uganda's Top Student and Top-Tier Teacher
|
|
In 2019, one of the students at Alpha & Omega (the school we've been supporting) achieved the highest score in Economics and Mathematics in all of Uganda. That same year, one of her teachers was named the second most effective Math teacher in the country!
