The Experience
The Freedom Program is a NGO that helps to give education for more than 60 kids, orphans and kids from very poor families that can't afford the school fees. We are running some business in the community that give us some income. All the profit goes to pay the school fees for the kids, their uniforms, books, medicines, and any bills related to their education. We need your help to improve our social media to make our project to reach more people.

Kit
United Kingdom
Staying with Brian was one of the best and most memorable experiences I will have. He was very focused but flexible on what tasks we could do and places we could visit. We did a lot of agricultural work, it was hot but the nature in Uganda is so beautiful. We had amazing fruits and everything is produced completely naturally. They provide nutrition for some the organization the crops and there is always some more work that can be done. I taught a few lessons and helped with class work which was really enjoyable. All the children are really friendly and are quick learners. Great project.

It was a very great experience and time from Brother Kit .
Let me take this advantage once again to appreciate everything done with brother kit for managing to donate for the new project.
We worked very hard and he managed to buy us a children home to improve on the education of kids in the community.
I think by next year we shall have to lonch the project after the renovations is done and ready to start a children's home .
We visited a lot of projects and we got other experience about children

This experience is truly something special. This project does very important work by providing the kids with education and a place to feel comfortable. Volunteering in the project felt very rewarding. It was a welcoming place to stay at and the locals are also very hospitable. I can only recommend you make this experience for yourself.

What a great friend and brother Cain was, am here to recommend that Cain was a kind person, friendly and open to everyone in the community at large.
Our kids received footballs and clothes from him where he used to play alot with children, he also managed to bring us working electronics which am using by now .
He liked to learn our local language and he went back but Left everyone missing him.
We liked his experience in teaching math to our children, games and sports.
He trained us some sports almost twice in a day.
Thanks 🙏 so much for volunteering with us , we have learnt alot from him .
God bless him abundantly.

Am here to recommend or let you know that Andrea was such an amazing lady who liked the children, staffs, community people and loved our project.
She has been so hard working like and more popular around the town and community.
Andrea brought alot of gifts to children and to the staffs.
She liked cooking 🍳 so much so she used to prepare us very delicious 😋 meals.
Andrea trained our children the following ie dancing, drawing, reading even some games.
Andrea fits on her position and I give her 100% of what she did during her stay and we shall wait until she's back but she has left us missing her so much .
Aisi
Uganda
Volunteering the organization Nankoma, Uganda, was an incredibly rewarding experience that left a lasting impact on me. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warmth and enthusiasm by the organization the local village. Their eagerness to learn and engage in activities was inspiring, and it was a joy to spend time with them each day. Overall, my experience volunteering the organization Nankoma, Uganda, exceeded all expectations. The opportunity to make a positive impact in the lives of young children while immersing myself in a vibrant and welcoming community was truly priceless.

Aisi was so an amazing person who liked to work with both us and the community, she helped us buy some gifts and also made a birthday party for five kids, and she left when all the classes have learnt to count from zero to 25 numbers in Chinese language and up to now the kids are still practicing slowly to mention but a few . We miss her so much in our project!
Tiago
Brazil
The Freedom Program is amazing, the NGO is changing the life of 70 kids nowadays providing them education and avoiding them of work. They really make a good impact on the community and they are on right track to be sustainable and don't need on donations anymore. I recommend this volunteer for everyone, you'll be contact with local, in a small and beautiful community in Nankoma and you can enjoy working to help the NGO grow and help more kids be added to the program.
