ACT has grown tremendously over the past ten years and each day we are closer to the goal of self-sustainability for our partners in Muko Sub-County Uganda. To do this requires the generous support and donations from many caring individuals. If you are interested in supporting ACT, you can donate to one of the following:
ACT General Fund Donation
As with most nonprofits, the majority of our donations and grants come to a specific program. While it is wonderful to have these resources to manager the programs, we also have more operational needs and different priorities from time-to-time. An example is building our endowment fund or supporting our Turinawe-Waechter ACT Resource Center! If you would like to support ACT General Fund, please click on the green donate button and select General Fund in the dropdown menu.
HANDS - Helping Agricultural New Development & Sustainability
ACT Staff and Volunteers work to develop and improve the capabilities of the local, subsistence farmers by the use of demonstration gardens, educational seminars, and hands-on assistance with their own gardens.

HEAL - Health is Elemental to All Life
