Additional Information
The Quicken Trust supports numerous successful poverty alleviation and health programmes in Kabubbu, Uganda. Today the Quicken Trust, based in Hailsham, East Sussex, touch the lives of around 50,000 people in the community and surrounding 130 villages.
Working with our sister NGO – the Kabubbu Development Project, we have successfully transformed the lives of thousands of people by providing skills and sustenance for many to be lifted out of poverty and improved health. This has provided a brighter tomorrow, full of hope for the wider community. Our life-transforming interventions, programmes and infrastructure projects include:
• Kabubbu Community Primary School
• Trust High School
• Kabubbu Health Centre
• Vocational Training Centre
• Graze School of Farming
• Tourist Resort Centre
• Kabubbu Church and Community Centre
…and many programmes supporting community and welfare needs. Attached is a copy of our Autumn and Christmas Newsletters. Please read about the amazing stories of lives being transformed.
What’s is a remarkable achievement, is our sister charity’s work is now 35% self-funding. 20 years ago we funded 100% of their programmes. Our quality affordable schools and healthcare together with business training programmes have helped many of the local villagers and their children to help themselves out of poverty, but there is still many who struggle each day to make ends meet. So our mission continues!
