Arise and Shine Uganda is improving the lives of people in rural communities in Uganda but we need your help!
As a small non-governmental organisation, AASU relies on fundraising and donations in order to do its work. AASU is a non-profit organisation so all funds raised go directly to the projects.
Fundraising for Arise and Shine Uganda is a great way to help us. Coffee meet-ups, craft or bake sales, holiday parties, treks, and any other adventure is on the table. One of our great successes is the selling of crafts made right here in Kibuye by women in the community. We will work with you in any way we can to ensure your fundraising event goes smoothly.
