Christian Outreach Committee
Our goal is to unite churches in Uganda and Colorado to stand together in faith and service. Through partnership, congregations can support education, sanitation, and spiritual growth—bridging cultures through God’s grace.

About the Committee
Speakers for Africa, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to education, community development, and transparency in Uganda.
While we are not defined as a faith-based organization, we are led by Christians and guided by God’s love. In 2025, our Board voted to establish the Christian Outreach Committee to connect churches, communities, and donors who want to support our mission through faith-centered initiatives.
This committee allows us to expand our impact by combining education, spiritual growth, and community support.
