Since 2010, PAPIRUDEI has worked to transform lives in rural Uganda. Here is our 2025 impact report.

346 families reached across Kyotera, Masaka, Lwengo, and Rakai Districts. Over 1,000 patients served annually at Padre Pio Hospital-Butozi. More than 500 children sponsored through our Education and Sponsorship Program. 47 children currently on our waiting list – $15 per month sponsors one child. 23 dedicated volunteers serving across four districts. $240,000 USD raised from generous donors since 2010.

Padre Pio Hospital-Butozi now serves over 1,000 patients annually in rural Masaka Diocese. Our equipment fundraising has reached 10 percent of the $370,000 goal. Every dollar funds life-saving medical equipment for real patients who have no other options.

Our Sponsor a Dream program has placed over 500 children in school – but 47 more children are on the waiting list today. Just $15 sponsors one child for a full month. That is less than a meal at a restaurant – but it changes a child life completely.

Code Queens teaches digital skills to adolescent girls in rural Uganda. With Uganda digital economy growing fast, girls in rural areas risk being left behind. $50 funds one complete training program. Help us close the digital gender gap.

Our WASH program has delivered clean water and sanitation facilities to schools across Kyotera and Masaka Districts, reducing disease and improving attendance.

Thank you to our partners: Project Cure, Salutem Health Uganda, Buganda Kingdom, Centenary Bank, and the Catholic Diocese of Masaka. In 2026, we aim to fully equip Padre Pio Hospital, clear our waiting list, expand Code Queens, and reach 500 more families. Donate at papirudei.org/donate and be part of the story.
