The African SOUP

The African SOUP is a Ugandan-led, non-governmental organization with roots in rural Nabikabala Village, where we serve nearly 900 children and 170 families with community-designed programs that are creating lasting solutions to poverty and fueling a push for national education reform.

 

Founded in 2009 and named after the fable of the stone soup - in which hungry villagers come together to make a collective feast - The African SOUP works alongside the local community to address its most vital needs. In addition to an exemplary primary and nursery school, we facilitate community outreach programs that support improved health and nutrition as well as economic empowerment, scholarships to further education, and the creation of a national project aimed at empowering students and teachers with the critical, creative, and ethical thinking skill sets to ensure leadership growth in Uganda.

Our Mission
To empower communities through national primary education change, informed by our community-development programming.
Our Vision
