no matter how far away the village…

We’re transforming access to quality education in rural communities.
we train teachers at our model school.
We are changing the landscape of education in rural Uganda through our demonstration school, Global Leaders Primary, and training rural teachers in innovative education technology solutions.
we empower girls with Skills for Life.
Our Skills for Life program was designed specifically to help keep more girls in school. This program equips youth with important life skills that are otherwise not accessed in the classroom.
we connect schools and students across the globe.
Our Schools for Schools program fosters partnerships between rural Ugandan schools and international "sister schools." Students from these partnered schools learn about each other’s culture and collaborate to design and fund initiatives that promote educational equity.
