Uganda Schools Trust is a charity registered in Scotland.
Charity Number SCO40695
Charity Number SCO40695
Uganda Schools Trust was set up in 2009 to support schools in the west of Uganda and to provide sponsorship for young people who might otherwise not be able to benefit fully, if at all, from the Ugandan education system.
The schools and children chosen are all known to the Trustees and have been visited regularly over the past few years prior to the establishment of Uganda Schools Trust (UST). The Trustees will continue to visit - at their own expense- and to work with the local people to enhance education and educational provision in Uganda.
The schools currently being supported are Kyebambe Girls' Secondary School in Fort Portal in Kabarole District, Buheesi Secondary School near Fort Portal and Glorious Preparatory School in Kasese District
