EDUCATION IS EMPOWERMENT
Dauphine’s Promise is dedicated to transforming the lives of girls in rural Uganda by providing education to those who never had a chance. Our tailored educational program breaks the barriers to access and develops the community at large.
RUN BY UGANDANS FOR UGANDANS
A board of directors comprised of Ugandan professionals, teachers, village leaders, and Westerners was formed to represent diverse perspectives. We work together to serve the needs of both the students and the community.
Our guiding principle revolves around "No footprint," offering opportunities without imposing influence or passing judgment.
Our Mission
We enhance the social, personal, and economic development of young girls in Uganda, by facilitating increased access to education and transformative resources.
Girls education is our priority. However, we are unwavering in our commitment, ensuring that no child is deprived of educational opportunities solely based on gender. This commitment extends to boys who demonstrate exceptional abilities and a keen interest in pursuing education.
Our Impact
80% of children in this district drop out of school, most of them before primary 6. Dauphine’s Promise combats this by providing underprivileged girls with a free education.
11+ STUDENTS ENROLLED
Each student is assured a full scholarship covering their entire educational journey, regardless of where it concludes.
IMPROVED TEST SCORES
Dauphine’s Promise students boast a daily attendance rate of 100% and average 23.5% test improvement across all subjects.
