Why UWA

A small team. Full accountability.

We are a refugee-led organisation in Kampala, Uganda. Every shilling and dollar is accounted for, and we report back to every donor with photographs, names, and outcomes.

01 / 04

Refugee-led

Founded and run by refugees who know first-hand what works in Uganda — and what does not.

02 / 04

Transparent

Annual impact reports. Photographs from the field. Named beneficiaries with verified outcomes.

03 / 04

Fast impact

Small teams, low overhead. A gift today reaches a beneficiary within weeks — not years.

04 / 04

Registered NGO

Up With Africa Ltd is a registered nonprofit operating legally in Uganda since 2020.

Before UWA, I did not know how to use a computer. Now I work as a data entry specialist and I can support my family. This organisation changed my life.
