Our Mission Statement states; Sharing with Compassion is.. supporting and enabling an environment for disadvantaged children to access education in Uganda. The SwC committee in Uganda, selects children who are unable to attend school, due to family poverty, from the slum area. Each year, ten more children, aged 4 15 are chosen to attend a quality school. The Four Steps of Mission is the work plan which focuses on the following: 1. Supporting Students: to give the children a quality education 2. Enabling Teachers: to become better equiped through regular professional development. 3. Involving Parents/Guardians: to encourage and assist their children with their learning. 4. Empowering Community: to become more interacted within the community to grow in selfsufficiency. It is also an opportunity for the younger members of the SwC committee, to be assisted in the training of leadership.

International Activities

Transferring funds The Australian SwC committee undertakes the funding of the charity. The Ugandan SwC committee has opened several required accounts to receive the funds. These accounts are for sponsorship, university funds and general needs. The Australian raises funds through sponsorship, fundraising, varied donations, and market sales. Operating Overseas The Australian committee develops the base of the planning. We establish the projects, and then send the documents email to Uganda, where they examine the plan and find if it will be appropriate for their culture. This ensures that the best way will benefit the children s learning, the best quality schools, and the best choice of teachers.
