Help us to build a better future for our children in Uganda
The experience
The Freedom Program is a NGO that helps to give education for more than 60 kids, orphans and kids from very poor families that can't afford the school fees.
We are running some business in the community that give us some income. All the profit goes to pay the school fees for the kids, their uniforms, books, medicines, and any bills related to their education.
We need your help to build and maintain our business which the profit goes to the kids.
