Every child deserves education

Sponsor a Student at St. Francis of Assisi, Give the Gift of Education

In Uganda there are students who are brilliant, motivated, and full of potential, but whose families simply cannot afford secondary school fees. At St. Francis of Assisi High School – Rwenjaza, we refuse to let poverty decide a child's future. Each year, we award full and partial scholarships to deserving students. But the number of students we can help depends entirely on the generosity of people like you. By sponsoring a student, you are not just paying school fees, you are investing in a young person's entire future.

Murphy Scholarship Fund

Our scholarship programme began with a single act of generosity. In 2020, Fr. Peter Murphy, a New Zealand Catholic priest, donated the monetary gifts from his priestly silver jubilee to help students in need. That seed grew into the Murphy Scholarship Fund, which has since supported multiple students who would otherwise never have accessed secondary education. Your donation continues that legacy

How to Sponsor a Student 

Sponsoring a student is simple:

  1. Choose your level of support, any amount is welcome
  2. Complete the donation form, your information is protected
  3. Receive confirmation, we will send you a receipt and update on your sponsored student’s progress

Scholarships are made possible through the generous support of friends of St. Francis of Assisi High School.
