Who We Are

A Grassroots Movement for Lasting Change in Uganda

NISS Project Uganda was founded on the belief that every person deserves the opportunity to live with dignity, health, and hope. We work hand-in-hand with rural and underserved communities to address the root causes of poverty and inequality.

From our base in Kampala and through field offices across the country, we deliver programs that are community-led, culturally rooted, and measurably effective. We listen first, then act — ensuring that every initiative reflects the real needs and aspirations of the people we serve.

Our Mission

To empower vulnerable Ugandan communities through sustainable programs in education, health, livelihoods, and the environment.

Our Vision

A Uganda where every individual has the knowledge, resources, and opportunity to thrive and contribute to society.

Our Values

Integrity, compassion, community ownership, sustainability, and respect for human dignity guide everything we do.

Our Approach

We partner with local leaders, train community champions, and build capacity so change continues long after we leave.

What We Do

Our Core Programs

We focus on four interconnected pillars that address the most pressing challenges facing Ugandan communities today.

Education program

Education & Child Development

We build classrooms, provide scholarships, supply learning materials, and train teachers so children — especially girls — can stay in school and reach their potential.

A Voice From The Community

Stories of Transformation

Behind every statistic is a person whose life has been changed. These are the stories that drive our work forward.

"Before NISS Project came to our village, my daughter had to walk 7 kilometres to the nearest school and often missed classes during the rains. Today, she attends a school we built together, and she dreams of becoming a doctor. NISS didn't just give us a building — they gave us hope." — Grace Auma, Mother & Community Volunteer, Gulu District
