African Impact
Volunteer in the Uganda Community Programme
This jungled land is home to some of Africa’s warmest people, and boasts a rare population of Mountain Gorillas. Uganda is attempting to stem the tide of previously deteriorated education facilities - President Museveni has made it possible for all primary children to receive free education, but still there is much to do. Your base is at Bujagali Falls, at the source of the River Nile.
