About Us
"Create all the happiness you are able to create: remove all the misery you are able to remove. Everyday will allow you to add something to the pleasure of others, or to diminish their pain."
This is our guiding principle – we know we can’t solve all the world’s problems but each one of us can make a positive difference.

Kyemula lies to to the South of Mbale. The distance from Kampala is only around 140 miles but as the road is unmetalled beyond Jinja, travel time is around 6 hours.
