The Giving Circle’s Uganda Charitable Effort

In 2011, the Ugandan Government asked The Giving Circle in Saratoga to visit a village referred to as “the forgotten people – the poorest village in Uganda.” The Giving Circle responded by improving sanitation, building a school, a nursing/midwife clinic, and a communal kitchen for shared meals. They worked with the residents to set up sustainable farming to provide badly needed income. In 2014 The Giving Circle stepped in to help a struggling primary school in Kagoma, Uganda.
