Several years ago, Alice Wegoye, a retired school teacher and mother of ten, felt she needed to help Uganda's orphans and children affected by war and extreme poverty. So she turned her house into a dorm, gave up her home and her land, and used her tiny pension to begin construction of a school in Kigo, Uganda.

In 2008, a few of us, inspired by Alice's dedication and vision, came together and set up the Mtaala Foundation. Our goal: to help Alice turn her small home into a fully operational school, Awegys Secondary School, providing the best possible education to those whose dreams of attending school had not been realised due to poverty, conflict or the death of their parents. 

Mtaala, run by volunteers in the US and UK, sends over 95% of its donations directly to Awegys, and over the last ten years not only have student numbers grown, from 5 to more than 100, but so has the school itself. 

Thank you
