What it says it does
THE OKUTONDA PROJECT IS CURRENTLY ASSISTING A GROUP OF CHILDREN IN MASAKA, UGANDA. WHILE IT IS NOT CURRENTLY A FORMAL UGANDAN ORGANIZATION, IT IS HOME OF AROUND THIRTY CHILDREN AGES 0-18. WE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ENSURING THAT EACH CHILD AT THE HOME IS SPONSORED. THESE FUNDS ALLOW EACH CHILD TO ATTEND A PRIVATE SCHOOL AND PROVIDE FOR MEDICAL-CARE IF AND WHEN IT IS NEEDED. WE ALSO WORK TO RAISE FUNDS AS WE IMPLEMENT SUSTAINABLE PROJECTS. WE ARE CURRENTLY RAISING THE FUNDS NECESSARY TO PURCHASE A VAN, WHICH WILL MAKE THE CHILDRENS HOME ONE-HUNDRED PERCENT SUSTAINABLE. IN ADDITION TO THIS, WE ARE RAISING THE FUNDS TO RE-BUILD THIS HOME AND ESTABLISH IT AS A FORMAL ORGANIZATION IN UGANDA. IN ORDER TO DO THIS, WE FUNDRAISE EACH MONTH FROM THE GENERAL PUBLIC. WE HAVE RAISED SUFFICIENT FUNDS TO ALLOW EACH CHILD TO ATTEND A PRIVATE SCHOOL AND HAVE MEDICAL CARE WHEN IT IS NEEDED. WE ARE CONTINUING TO RAISE FUNDS FOR THE VAN AND THE RE-CONSTRUCTION OF THE HOME.

Financial health

Governance
This organization files the short tax form, which does not ask about boards, policies or audits. That is normal for a small charity and is not a mark against it.
