AFFCAD School

AFFCAD School is a community based school which was founded in June 2011 by Action for Fundamental Change and Development (AFFCAD) an NGO that operates in slum communities under its Education program. The school was started with an aim of eradicating illiteracy in Bwaise community where majority of the children were unable to attain basic primary school education because of high poverty rates and lack of a government aided school in the area. Supported by AFFCAD and its Partners, the school has provided formal education to over 400 orphans, vulnerable children and those who are affected and infected with HIV/AIDS between 3-12 years from nursery to primary school.

Our Journey

Mobirise

AFFCAD School was started in June 2011 by an NGO called Action For Fundamental Change And Development (AFFCAD) initially as Excel Education Center. The school offered support to orphaned children and children who were not able to go to school due to lack of school fees in Bwaise Slum, with financial support from partners like the US Embassy in Kampala, Irish Aid and the Slum walks done by AFFCAD. 
In 2018, the school rebranded to AFFCAD School where it was opened up to the community.
