OUR PHILOSOPHY: IF WE CAN HELP, THEN WHY NOT?
We’re a small group of UK professionals who support the awe-inspiring work of communities in developing areas of Uganda. We’re a diverse bunch, but we mutually recognise the privilege afforded to us by living in the UK. So why not use that privilege for something great.
If we can help others, then why not…
Since 2022 we’ve facilitated women’s empowerment workshops, teaching over 700 women & girls about female reproductive health, and have provided thousands of reusable sanitary products,
We’ve achieved this through you! Crowdfunding our way to more empowered communities.
