About This Project

The purpose and goal of Marles Children's Foundation is to provide for the education and basic needs (food, potable water, transportation, boarding) of impoverished (including homeless) Ugandan children in the area of Wakiso and the broader Kampala region by operating MCF Junior Schools(Junior kindergarten to Primary 4).

The ministry is facing two significant challenges:
  • Secure adequate, uninterrupted supply of water. Drought conditions make supply from rainwater harvesting insufficient.

  • Recruiting and retaining qualified teaching and support staff. Rising staff salaries, allowances and government-mandated benefits are stressing the school's operating budget.

The ministry is handling these challenges as follows:
  • Staff have reached out to municipal authorities and received an offer to connect to municipal water source at a cost of ~CAD $2000. New donations are required to make this happen.

  • New on-going monthly donations of ~CAD $3000 are required to meet this increasing funding need.

*The Great Commission Foundation (the "Foundation") operates on the basis of Donor-Advised Funding. It is our utmost goal to meet the Donor's desire and intent to provide support to particular Foundation projects but, ultimately, the responsibility for the disbursement and ministry use of funds is the Foundation's. If the Foundation does not use the donation in the way the donor prefers, the Foundation will not return the donation to the donor.

*You will receive an official Canadian tax receipt for all eligible donations by the end of February of the following year. Thank you for your support of the missions and programs of the Foundation.
