We are an indigenous nonprofit organization that nurtures leaders who are committed to advancing equitable access to quality education for children in low-income communities in Uganda through a two-year teaching fellowship. We recruit, train and place graduates from varied academic backgrounds to serve as full-time teachers (fellows) in underserved primary schools to improve foundational literacy and numeracy skills for children while developing their leadership skills. Post fellowship, our alumni become lifelong advocates of quality education as community leaders, social entrepreneurs, and policy influencers collectively addressing the systemic challenges that hinder children from fulfilling their potential. We currently operate in 10 districts i.e., Mukono, Bugiri, Namayingo, Buikwe, Mayuge, Namutumba, Kayunga, Hoima, Kikuube and Kagadi; impacting over 100,000 children in 182 schools.
