Women empowerment through woodwork skills training in Uganda

Support Us

Help us empower young women in Uganda through skills training, paid work placements, and pathways to financial independence.

Why Your Support Matters

Every contribution directly funds women-led skills and livelihood empowerment — from workshop materials to mentorship programmes that change lives.

Direct Impact

Your donation goes directly to training materials, tools, instructor fees, and stipends for young women and single mothers in Kampala.

Transparent & Accountable

We keep administration costs to a minimum. Full budget breakdowns, M&E frameworks, and impact reports are available to all supporters.

Lasting Change

Graduates gain marketable woodwork skills, financial literacy, and connections to savings groups — creating independence that lasts beyond the programme.
