Hope Empowers Academy's (HEA) mission is to educate children in extreme poverty who would otherwise not attend school. For the extreme poor (earning under $2.15/day according to the WHO), Uganda's public education is unaffordable, causing these families to remain trapped in generational poverty.
Hope Empowers Academy wants to break the generational poverty cycle through ultra low-cost school fees for families. But because extreme poverty prohibits parents from paying even the lowest fees, it's impossible to cover the school costs. So that’s where people across the world join hands with Hope Empowers Academy to change the trajectory of children’s lives through our "Watch Them Grow" Partnership.
Together, we'll help raise a community of children out of extreme poverty while connecting you with a student on their education journey. All support is directed to meet general expenses of the school, and you be blessed to watch an individual student grow!
Families shouldn't have to choose between food, shelter, and education. Help us bring children out of the shadows and into the classroom.
Partners with a heart to help the extreme poor have an opportunity to change the trajectory of children's lives with a goal to end generational poverty. As a partner, your support will be directed to meet the general expenses of the school and you'll join the educational journey of one special child to pray for, encourage, and watch them grow throughout their time at Hope Empowers Academy.
The most effective way to help students is to pool partnership contributions to fund education for all students in our program. This method ensures that our transformative educational mission reaches as many students as possible. Donations are sent through our American partner, Children's Home Chain, so that contributions are tax-deductible.
At the beginning of each school year, we'll email an annual report for the school & your student's photo & update, including school progress, health & well-being.
Then, mid-year your child will email you a scanned letter or drawing. You're welcome to write back, if you want.
