It costs $1,800 per year ($150 per month) per student to provide the best education and leadership training to our students.

Half of the cost is school fees, room and board at the very best boarding schools.

In addition to paying school fees, L.E.A.D Uganda provides books, school supplies, school uniforms, shoes, book bags, medical care, counseling to heal our students traumas, transportation to/from school, after-school activities such as sports, school trips, academic tutoring, leadership workshops, and (for our very best students) educational trips and transportation to universities in the United States, India, and South Africa.

100% of your donation goes to our student’s education in Uganda.

We have a specific grant that covers our fund-raising and staff costs in the United States.

82% goes directly towards their educational and living expenses.

Our student’s educational expenses are $1449.79 per year. $841  for school fees, $158.80 for books and uniforms, $106.85 covers our educational and leadership workshops, and $140.96 is the cost of travel to and from schools.

Slightly less than 18% covers Ugandan staff salaries and expenses for operating the house where the students stay during part of their school breaks and when they are ill.  Our educational workshops are also held at the house. The house is our student’s “safe” place and it is the only home for our double orphans.

[1] Select students have the opportunity to travel to the United States and India for university, and to the United States to speak to schools, churches, and the media. The per student cost of this travel is included here, even though not all travel.
