Event Sponsorship

A $10,000-$25,000 event sponsorship at the Hope Rising Gala is more than event support, it is a transformational investment in the lives of vulnerable children and families served through UCSS. This level of partnership helps underwrite the cost of the event, but more than that, allows us to expand our outreach into new areas, providing critical resources such as life-saving medical care, educational opportunities, clean water access, family strengthening programs, and spiritual encouragement for new communities. A gift of this magnitude has the power to sustain key programs, expand outreach efforts, and create lasting impact for those who once faced little hope for the future.

As a valued Hope Rising Sponsor, you will receive:

  • Two complimentary event tickets 

  • Two complimentary meals at the event

  • Recognition in the event program and event materials [Optional]

  • An exclusive pre-event meet and greet with the evening’s speakers and the UCSS team

  • The opportunity to stand alongside UCSS in bringing hope, dignity, and transformation to vulnerable communities

Your partnership helps ensure that hope continues to rise for children and families who need it most.

Table Sponsorships

A Table Sponsorship is a meaningful way to support the mission of UCSS while inviting others to experience its impact firsthand. Sponsors receive reserved seating for ten guests and access to a special meet-and-greet with UCSS leadership, speakers, and board members. Sponsors may also choose to be recognized in the event program as a valued partner in transforming lives and strengthening communities.

This sponsorship is ideal for individuals, businesses, churches, and organizations who want to share the UCSS story while investing in lasting impact.

Who We Are

Uganda Counseling and Support Services is a Christ-centered, community-driven organization serving rural Eastern Uganda through integrated programs and sustainable development.

What makes UCSS distinct is its scalable and sustainable model.

Sustainable by Design

UCSS works through long-term community partnerships rather than short-term aid. Programs are built to strengthen local leadership, equip families with practical skills, and develop infrastructure that communities can maintain themselves.

  • Village wells are repaired with locally sourced parts and trained technicians.

  • Farmers receive tools, seed, and training to increase long-term crop yields.

  • Clinics provide ongoing care, counseling, and maternal health support.

  • Students are educated and discipled to become leaders in their own communities.

Scalable for Greater Impact

Because UCSS integrates clean water, healthcare, education, mental health and community development, growth in one area strengthens the others. This holistic model allows programs to expand efficiently from village to village while maintaining quality and accountability.

Your sponsorship does not create dependency, it builds capacity. It multiplies impact. It equips communities to thrive for generations.
