Education & Sanitation Projects in Uganda

Speakers for Africa is a U.S.-based nonprofit supporting education, sanitation, and student advocacy in Uganda through direct programs and community partnerships.

Our programs focus on improving school environments, expanding access to clean water, and supporting students through direct community partnerships.

With over 25 years of experience in Uganda, we bring deep local knowledge to effectively support vulnerable students and underserved communities. Donations go directly to impactful projects, with real-time updates that provide transparency and accountability.

Through live streaming and digital storytelling, we connect supporters in the United States with communities in Uganda—fostering cultural understanding, trust, and meaningful global relationships.

We are also developing partnerships between schools in Colorado and Uganda, creating opportunities for students in Evergreen, Conifer, and beyond to engage, learn, and grow together.

Classrooms Need Repair

Speakers For Africa is a Colorado-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit that supports disadvantaged students in Uganda. We are raising funds to rebuild classrooms for students in Uganda. Younger children (many of whom are orphans) are forced to study in a building on the brink of collapse.

Pit Latrine

In Uganda, inadequate sanitation remains a critical public health challenge, particularly in remote areas such as Kiruhua District in Western Uganda. Poor access to proper facilities contributes to the spread of waterborne diseases such as cholera and diarrhea, which affects children and vulnerable populations.
