Programs
Choose from Our 4 Locally-Led Community-Based Programs (plus 1 bonus)The Real Uganda began as an initiative to bring skills and funding to locally-led community-based organizations in Uganda. In almost two decades, we have grown into a network of international volunteers and Ugandan leaders that transform local communities.
In all our programs, volunteers are introduced to the beauty and complexity of Ugandan culture, and encouraged to build relationships with ordinary Ugandans working hard to improve our society.
