Help Us Save Amatsiko School
For 11 years, Amatsiko School has provided education, meals and hope to vulnerable children in Kabale, Uganda.
Now the school faces its biggest challenge yet.
Due to a government safety and infrastructure enforcement programme, the temporary buildings the children currently learn in can no longer remain in use long-term. We urgently need to build a permanent school to keep education accessible and safe for over 400 children.
We have land secured. We have community support. We have the vision.
What we urgently need now is help funding the build.
We founded and support Amatsiko Preparatory School with every tour in Uganda
At Amatsiko Tours, we believe travel should create a lasting impact—not just for you, but for the people and places you encounter. When you travel with us on our Uganda cultural and safari tours, you’re not just exploring Uganda, you’re directly supporting over 400 children at Amatsiko School in Kabale, South-Western Uganda.
What Is Amatsiko School?
Founded to provide a safe and nurturing environment for orphans and vulnerable children, Amatsiko School offers much more than education. Many students have lost their parents to HIV/AIDS and, without this school, would have no access to learning or daily meals. Amatsiko School provides not only education, but three meals a day and a sense of hope for the future.
We currently have 400 children at Amatsiko School, providing them with primary school education.
The school ensures that children not only receive an education but also three nutritious meals a day, ensuring they can focus on learning.
Your monthly support helps empower families, creating a ripple effect across the region.
How Your Tour Funds the School
When you book a tour, 20% of your fee goes directly towards running Amatsiko School. This means your trip funds meals, learning materials, and the resources these children need to thrive. As part of your journey, you’ll also have the opportunity to visit the school, meet the children, and see the difference your travel is making.
Want to help even more? Spend time volunteering—you don’t need to be a teacher! Share activities you love, like art, games, or gardening, and connect with students in a way that suits you. Past travellers have helped build a library, planted gardens, and even constructed a basketball hoop for the playground.
