​The Difference We're Making
85+% of the funds we raise support our programs.
We strive to be a very lean organization, keeping our operating expenses to less than 15%.

See previous years' expenses here.
​
80% of our graduates are earning an income, supporting themselves and their families.


Only 3% of our female students (4 of 155) have become pregnant. 
​
(Teen pregnancy rate in Uganda is 25% for general population, 72% among the poorest girls).
