Our History Saint Ann Foundation was born out of a powerful personal journey and a legacy of compassion. Founded in 2017 by Abel Robert Ssekayombya, the organization grew from his own experience of being raised by his late Auntie Ann after losing his parents at a young age due to poverty and hardship. In gratitude for her care and driven by a deep desire to support others facing similar challenges, Abel established Saint Ann Foundation to continue her legacy of uplifting underprivileged children, girls, and women. Today, the Foundation is legally registered in Uganda as a Company Limited by Guarantee and an NGO under the NGO Act 2016, as well as a 501(c)(3) public charity in the United States (EIN: 83-0652651). It works across peri-urban and hard-to-reach rural communities to create opportunities for those most in need. Our Mission Saint Ann Foundation envisions a world where every child, girl, and woman is nurtured, empowered, and equipped to reach their full potential. Guided by the motto “Empowered children, girls, and women, transformed communities,” we coordinate and optimize resources that enhance the welfare of the underprivileged. Through a collaborative, grassroots approach, we implement education, skills development, health, and livelihood programs that build resilience and support sustainable community growth. What Volunteers Should Expect Volunteers joining Saint Ann Foundation become part of a caring and purpose-driven community that values meaningful engagement and mutual learning.
