Make a Difference

Our heartfelt thanks to the many of you who have supported us through the years and continue to support us. This couldn't happen without you!!

When you donate to the Ugandan Girls Scholarship Foundation 100% of your donation will be used toward tuition and supplies for the girls.

How YOU can make a difference:

$20 will buy a treated mosquito net. Students miss many hours of school each year
because of malaria. In fact, malaria remains the largest cause of death in Uganda.

$50 Cdn will buy school supplies for one child for an entire year including uniform, texts, exercise books, a backpack, a mosquito net, a wash basin and a trunk in which to carry personal belongings.

$500 Cdn will cover the entire cost of a child for one year in boarding school including accommodation, food, and school supplies.

$Any Amount will make a difference. We will pool all donations received to deliver the maximum impact.

Make a Bigger Difference

Are you able to make a large or long term donation. Perhaps you, or a group you know, would be able to provide $500/year for 6 years to support a student from S1 through S6? We would be happy to "match" you with a student. We will let you know everything we know about her and provide the opportunity to correspond if you choose.

If you are interested in sponsoring one of our graduating students through university we would also be happy to discuss them with you. The costs will vary depending on their program of study and the institution that they attend. The opportunities to make a lasting impact here are endless!

Other ideas…

Help us out by holding a fundraiser with your friends. Do a 50:50 draw at your next family reunion, throw a party and charge a small cover fee, put a "small change" container on your desk at work, have a garage sale, get creative!

Feel free to contact us to discuss any possible option at info@ugsfund.com

Please note that while we are hoping to obtain registered charity status in 2012 we are not yet a registered charity. Until we achieve that status tax receipts will not be issued for donations and as such your donation is not tax deductible. While we appreciate all donations, if you are not comfortable donating under these terms, please consider making your donation to another worthy registered charity.
