Selected Scholarship Beneficiaries

Education is a powerful tool that has the potential to change lives, uplift families, and strengthen communities. However, not every child has equal access to this essential opportunity, leaving many in vulnerable situations without the chance to learn and grow. In Kasese, LECAU is making a difference by harnessing the generosity and support of donors from around the world. Through their efforts, they are providing educational opportunities to those who need it most, ensuring that children in the community have a chance to break the cycle of poverty and build a brighter future. By investing in education, LECAU is not only transforming individual lives but also fostering a more educated and empowered community that can thrive together.
