So They Can Thrive

So They Can Thrive is a grassroots organization in Portland Oregon,  whose focus is to provide opportunity to communities around the world, so they can thrive!

We  have successfully constructed the Good Grace Primary School, as well as the Good Grace Secondary School in Kacerere, Uganda. We currently support 700 students and are continuing to expand. We pay for tuition, books, medical care, uniforms, two meals a day and clean water. 

We also manage a 24 acre farm.  This SIGNIFICANTLY reduces the costs of feeding our students, while providing the local economy with jobs. On our farm, we produce maize, beans, cabbage, and tomatoes. Excess crops are sold to the public to offset teachers wages, maintenance costs, and future projects. 

Currently we are fundraising for the expansion of both our schools,  updating our library, buying more medical equipment and supplies for our clinic, and improving overall sanitation of the village in Kacerere.
