HUG Projects

HUG's aim has always been to create projects in Uganda to empower Ugandans to make a positive difference in their own lives. All projects and programs are established in consultation with local communities and their ownership of the venture is considered essential from the very beginning. We work in partnership with the Ugandans to fulfil ambitions they have to create a sustainable difference. It is not about giving them a hand out, it is about enabling them to pursue projects they would otherwise be unable to achieve. With this in mind, all HUG projects in Uganda, are now being co-ordinated through the Suubi Centre which we have developed in partnership with the local community of Lubanda Village, Lwengo District.

'Suubi', in the local language of luganda, literally means 'hope' and we believe that the centre is living up to its name. The holistic approach of everything under taken at the Centre sees education, financial self-sufficiency and health, addressed in an integrated, yet flexible way. This is truly bringing 'hope' to the community as the standard of living in the district improves across all of these areas. To check out all of the projects now successfully running at the Centre and to read all about the wonderful achievements of everyone participating there, please visit the newly developed Suubi Centre section of this website.
