Overview

Mission

The okutonda project is currently assisting a group of children in masaka, uganda. While it is not currently a formal ugandan organization, it is home of around thirty children ages 0-18. We are responsible for ensuring that each child at the home is sponsored. These funds allow each child to attend a private school and provide for medical-care if and when it is needed. We also work to raise funds as we implement sustainable projects. We are currently raising the funds necessary to purchase a van, which will make the childrens home one-hundred percent sustainable. In addition to this, we are raising the funds to re-build this home and establish it as a formal organization in uganda. In order to do this, we fundraise each month from the general public. We have raised sufficient funds to allow each child to attend a private school and have medical care when it is needed. We are continuing to raise funds for the van and the re-construction of the home.

What it reported doing in 2025

Expenses are related to school fees for said children in masaka, uganda, and for the funding of the website to support outreach for the children.
