Providing community-led solutions for
wellbeing, happiness, and hope
Operating community centers in Uganda
More than a charity, Action in Africa is a full-circle approach nurturing children into educated adults who give back to their communities.
Our Mission
To advance the social, personal, and economic, development of children, youth, and adults in Uganda through greater access to education and other life-changing resources.
For Uganda’s Children
A cup of porridge may seem insignificant, but half the children in Uganda don’t have three meals a day.
Hunger creates a barrier to learning, so The Center at Action in Africa offers healthy and delicious cups of porridge to everyone.
For Uganda’s Youth
Many Ugandans won’t pass 7th grade, so Action in Africa offers merit-based scholarships and mentorships to guide every child from grade school through university graduation and beyond.
For Uganda’s Adults
12 million Ugandans live in poverty, so in addition to pop-up healthcare clinics, Action in Africa offers adult education programs, covering topics that adult students need to prosper.
