Our Model
In each community, we use donations to build a high quality school, health center, farm, and business. This investment builds long-term programs, unlocks local resources, and creates opportunities for transformation.
How it works
Invested Donations
It is simple yet powerful: donations are utilized to build and launch holistic Uganda programs through a school, health center, farm and business in rural communities.
Sustained Programs
We use locally generated revenue to sustain the operational costs of programs in Uganda.
Transformative Impact
Programs are led by Ugandans, who tackle key challenges in rural communities by building local economies, creating jobs, educating students, providing healthcare, offering vocational training, and empowering smallholder farmers.
Ugandans Empowering Ugandans
At the core, we believe our investment into communities mobilizes a movement of Ugandans empowering Ugandans. Our strategy brings dignified opportunities for the people of Uganda to address their country's most challenged places.
Addressing the major issues that face rural communities
As a result, our work is not only led by local Ugandans, they are addressing the major issues facing rural communities across the country by building local economies, creating jobs, educating students, providing health services, establishing vocational training programs, and equipping smallholder farmers.
Discipleship
Our top priority is participating in God’s redemptive work. Discipleship to Jesus unites everything we do. From AsOne employees to alumni, we invest in their spiritual growth, tracking their engagement in spiritual practices, worship attendance, and Christian community.
Education
We believe in investing in the future of Uganda. Education is the foundation of our work and community development approach. By building financially sustainable schools, we nurture engaged citizens, future leaders, and a skilled workforce to drive lasting change in Uganda.
Health
In rural areas, access to healthcare is often a challenge. AsOne health centers address this by providing quality, affordable care in hard-to-reach communities. From malaria treatment to prenatal care and community health programs, we prioritize dignity and quality in every service.
Agriculture
AsOne farms and training programs are central to our model. Each farm generates revenue and serves as a demonstration site for new farming techniques, while our farmer training program equips local leaders to share resources and train smallholder farmers. This boosts crop yields and stabilizes family incomes across our Ugandan communities.
Economic Development
In Uganda, there's a phrase we love: “Don’t be job seekers; be job creators.” We’re committed to creating quality jobs in every community we serve, driving economic growth for individuals and families.
