Saint Ann Foundation
Unverified non-profit organisation
Saint Ann Foundation (SAF) is a local independent non-profit organization in Uganda, founded in 2012 (MIA/NB/2017/08/173) with an affiliation in the US under a 501©3 NGO (EIN 83-0652651). SAF is dedicated to providing opportunities to underprivileged children and women through education, cultural arts and community support. SAF works with the poor to overcome poverty and injustice as well as alleviate the distress of the vulnerable and defenseless. They provide food, shelter, and love to those who are marginalized and in need of compassion. SAF serves all people regardless of religion, race, ethnicity, gender or economic background etc.
SAF programs support children and young people to participate more fully in their education by providing scholarships, emotional, practical and financial support. The programs give disadvantaged children the skills and motivation to stay in school and get the most from their education so they can create a better future for themselves. To achieve this the foundation fosters international cooperation, community based development and cross cultural programs to ensure that all children have access to an enriched education and future opportunities. Above all, they believe “education attainment is an important predictor of future employment, welfare, and health prospects – and it improves [a person’s] ability to contribute socially and economically in the community.”
