solidarity, not charity
We don’t build schools. Mwebaza Foundation partners with existing school communities in Uganda and Colorado to create meaningful cross-cultural learning experiences and economic opportunities.
We focus on reciprocal knowledge transfer, participatory design, and genuine community agency to continue scaling solutions to poverty, inequity, and injustice.
our mission
We create new pathways that inspire global citizenship and foster sustainable change through cross-cultural education and investment in social enterprise.
Through our programs, we challenge existing power dynamics, develop meaningful international connections, and support grassroots projects that center on local expertise and perspectives.
education opportunities
Our cross-cultural education activities and global studies curriculums foster a sense of self and a deepened worldview so students learn how to become change-makers advocating for and creating systems rooted in justice.
Social Enterprises
We collaborate with Ugandan community members to develop cooperatively run social enterprises. As businesses grow, participants and our partner schools earn income that builds financial agency to create a sustainable and just future.
Equal partnership
Through these programs, our partner schools and communities learn together and grow increasingly equipped to build power from a place of equity. In that, we operate in solidarity towards our shared mission.
