Holistic Education is Transforming Lives in Rural Uganda

Addressing The Education Gap in Eastern Uganda

Many students in Rural Eastern Uganda lack access to education. Schools are often underfunded, far away from the student’s home, or missing entirely.

Education is a vital foundation for personal growth and development—emotionally, intellectually, spiritually, and socially. Education is not only about acquiring knowledge and skills, but also about discovering and nurturing each individual's unique strengths and potential. We are committed to a holistic approach to education that supports the physical, emotional, social, spiritual, and cognitive well-being of every learner.

Primary, Secondary, and Vocational Programs That Make a Difference

UCSS provides access to education for thousands of students who would likely never be able to go to school. We now operate three primary schools, one secondary school, and a thriving vocational school to give students not only knowledge, but real life, hands-on skills that they can use to make an income and begin to thrive.
