Shelter Academy of Light is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based in USA and built on a unique partnership between the local Ugandan communities and caring everyday local residents of Arlington Heights, Illinois. Our mission is to build and maintain a private model school to educate and provide relief for poor and orphaned children in Uganda. Here in USA, Shelter Academy of Light is primarily volunteer-driven with a Board of Directors and a growing community of dedicated and caring supporters. In Uganda, there is a committee that comprises of experienced teachers, social workers, church leaders and local leaders who are very dedicated and willing to do whatever it takes to enable this chance of providing a quality education to many orphans and poor children of Uganda thrive.
