How education support works
Fees go directly to the school.
Goodwill does not hand education financing to parents.
The organisation pays participating schools directly and receives school receipts. Families then make monthly repayments into the revolving fund, helping the same resources continue supporting education.
The goal is straightforward: keep boys and girls learning and work towards zero tolerance for avoidable absenteeism.
Schools reached
Growing from one role-model school.
Programmes are first practised through Goodwill Nursery and Primary School in Buwooya Sub-county before being extended to other school communities.
Bukaali Community Primary School

Namatoka Primary School
Goodwill has also begun supporting learners at secondary level and hopes to expand to more districts in Uganda.
Education first
Opportunity begins with a place to learn.
Goodwill Nursery and Primary School provides a practical connection to learners and families in Buwooya. The Initiative can use that local foundation to coordinate wider education and community support.
