Education is more than just a pathway to knowledge — it’s a lifeline for orphans and vulnerable children in Uganda. It offers hope, opens doors to opportunities, and breaks the cycle of poverty. At Orphan Aid Uganda, we believe that every child, regardless of their circumstances, has the right to learn, grow, and dream without limits.
The Education Gap for Orphans in Uganda
Across Uganda, thousands of orphaned children struggle to access quality education. Many cannot afford school fees, uniforms, or learning materials. Others are forced to drop out to work and support younger siblings. Without education, these children face a lifetime of limited opportunities.
Our Education Support Program
To address these challenges, Orphan Aid Uganda provides comprehensive support to ensure children stay in school and excel. Our program includes:
- School Fees & Exam Costs – covering the expenses that keep children from attending school.
- Uniforms & Supplies – providing books, stationery, shoes, and school uniforms.
- Mentorship & Guidance – pairing children with mentors who encourage them academically and emotionally.
- Scholarships for Higher Education – supporting talented students to continue to secondary school, vocational training, or university.
We partner with schools, communities, and sponsors to ensure children receive not just education, but the encouragement and resources they need to succeed.
Why Education Matters
Educating an orphan changes more than just one life — it impacts entire communities. When a child is educated:
- They gain skills to secure decent work in the future
- They are less vulnerable to exploitation and abuse
- They become role models for other children in their community
- They can break free from the cycle of poverty
How You Can Help
Your support can make the difference between a child dropping out and a child graduating. Just $50 per month can cover school fees, uniforms, and essential supplies for one child.
Whether you choose to sponsor a child’s education, donate learning materials, or volunteer as a tutor, you are investing in a future where every child has the tools to reach their potential.
