Your grant strengthens a locally led model: education sponsorship as the entry point, surrounded by health, protection and support systems — delivered through grassroots organizations that know their communities.
What you can fund
Child Education Sponsorship — flagship
Scale the sponsorship platform to more children and more districts — school support plus vocational skills and future-employment linkages.
The grassroots network
Capacity strengthening for local child-sponsorship organizations: child programming, digital tools, transparent sponsorship management.
Child health and wellbeing
Child-friendly healthcare partnerships and health insurance coverage that keep sponsored children healthy and in school.
Child support systems
Caregiver training and child protection mechanisms in schools, churches and communities — safe environments free from violence.
Why funders trust the model
Traceable to the child
M&E is embedded in the Nofam platform — real-time data on school performance, healthcare and sponsorship continuity.
Independent governance
Registered Ugandan NGO with an independent board, dedicated M&E staff, transparent budgeting and independent audits.
Policy framework
Child protection, safeguarding, gender equality and data protection policies, plus financial, procurement and HR policies.
Government alignment
Programmes align with the Ministry of Education and Sports and national health systems for lasting, embedded impact.
Quarterly accountability
Quarterly stakeholder reviews, baseline and endline assessments per project cycle, and regular reporting to funders.
Built to outlast grants
Diversified resources, local capacity and community ownership ensure impact continues beyond the funding cycle.
The ask
€100,000 a year, for a maximum of five years
Bridge funding to make Nofam Uganda fully self-sustaining — not a permanent line in anyone's budget, but a build with an end date.
The revenue that replaces it
A share of sponsorship proceeds · entrepreneurship · real-estate projects · Faerly — an NGO deliberately building a business model to outlive donor dependency.
