In the heart of Uganda, education is often seen as a luxury rather than a right. However, at Right Education Foundation (REF Uganda), we believe that for a child to truly learn, they must first be whole. Our approach combines the academic rigor of our Nursery and Primary School with the compassionate sanctuary of our Children’s Home.
Why “Holistic” Matters
A hungry child cannot focus on mathematics. A child worried about where they will sleep cannot master literacy. By integrating our children’s home with our school system, we provide:
- Stability: A consistent, safe environment where children feel they belong.
- Nutrition & Health: Regular meals and medical check-ups that fuel physical and mental growth.
- Emotional Support: Counseling and mentorship that help children heal from past traumas.
Our goal is not just to produce students who pass exams, but to nurture “Somebody” from “Nobody.” When a child from our home walks into our classroom, they carry the confidence of knowing they are supported in every arena of life.
