OUR STORY
Here at Enhance Humanity Uganda, we are committed to investing our expertise and resources in order to further achieve our cause. Since our founding in 2020, we have been supporting our community members in a variety of ways, and are determined to make an impact.
Our Learning Center is situated in Jinja, Uganda where youth are welcomed each day to receive daily lessons, character building, skills training and most importantly, love and support from our amazing mentors. Our mentors show up each day with renewed commitment to ensure these youth have a chance to make it in this world. Built on our three pillars - Believe, Discover, Lead - we inspire youth to recognize their unique selves, build their own educational path, and prepare them to be contributing, outstanding citizens.
We offer a variety of academic and extracurricular courses to youth in the area surrounding our community center, located in Jinja, Uganda. We provide meals, classes and family support programs at no cost to the students.
Core values
Believe
In order to have hope for a better life, you must first believe it's possible. At EHU, we work from the heart, reminding our kids of their infinite worth and value, and that they have a great purpose in life. Our daily character and leadership training classes inspire our young learners to face their challenges and put in the hard work to transform their future.
Through love, support and encouragement, we see kids gradually overcome their negative and paralyzing assumptions they have about their own abilities, and slowly emerge as confident young leaders.
Discover
At EHU, we strive to present many diverse opportunities so that our kids can discover their natural talents and abilities. Rather than trying to fit each youth into a set program, we create a program that meets their personal goals and provides support and encouragement to ensure their success.
We believe that each one of us is unique, and that a part of our learning journey should be discovering our individuality and celebrating our differences.
Since all of our students rarely have the opportunity to venture more than 5 kilometers from where they live, we provide them with a wide variety of training sessions in vocational and life skills such as sports, dance, drama, public speaking and more. Through these different activities, we discover where they excel, encourage them to pursue what they love, and find mentors that can help them achieve their personal goals.
lead
Our diverse group of students are working together to ensure they have a brighter future. Through their commitment to improve their own lives, they have an impact on their communities, and become young leaders who spread hope in the lives of others.
They not only encourage each other to exemplify good character, but also set the example for other kids to follow. Within their communities, people notice the change that happens to the kids attending EHU and recognize the leaders they have become. Once kids believe in themselves, they lead - and by their efforts, they not only change themselves, but also the people around them.
