Figures shown in GB Pounds. 


## Operational costs 

Operational costs include Ugandan staff costs, legal and administration costs and transport costs. 

SGP employs 2 people directly and partially funds the salaries of 13 medical staff at the St Christopher’s, Nkuringo Green Hill Health Centre (NGHH). In 2022 as the NGHH upgraded its services to Type III standards, a further complement of staff where recruited and funded. 

Operational costs are spent on payroll for SGP staff resident in Uganda as well as National  Social  Security  Fund  (NSSF)  contributions  Pay  as  You  Earn  (PAYE). Ugandan nationals are employed with good work conditions and pay. In turn, the staff have been able to support themselves financially supporting improvements in  the  welfare  of  communities  and  enrich  the  lives  of  individuals  in  rural communities.

## Forecast 

## Forecast 2026 

**Key Features** 

- Funding - £30,668 or 149 Million Shillings 

- Handing over of management and funding of NGHH to the local community 

- School fees supported for 46 students 

- Growth of the Empower Her project 

- Support infrastructure projects at St Christopher’s NGHH 

- Support for vocational training and schooling facilities 

- Support for further phases of development of the BUDEFO water project 

2026 funding has fallen from a high in 2019. Donors are located mostly in the UK and  the  USA.  The  economic  downturn  has  affected  the  SGP  fund  raising initiatives in these countries, and has effected the ability to increase funding levels year on year. 

Funds are raised in the UK and the USA through individual donors and corporate donors. Funds are raised through funded events or through regular corporate donation under CSR initiatives.

## Health Projects 

SGP provides funding for the St. Christopher’s  Nkuringo Green Hill Health Centre (NGHH). The facility has been registered as a Type III facility (Ugandan health clinic  classification)  is  to  be  able  to  provide  health  services,  in  line  with guidelines set out by the Uganda Ministry of Health, delivered by the community. 

It is the intent of SGP that the Ministry of Health and agencies of the Catholic Church will be able to join SGP in co-funding the facility in line with the MOU. The MOU states that SGP will fund up to 100% of costs of NGHH during the first 5 years of operation. Thereafter, SGP will fund 60% of costs in years 6 and 7. In years 8, 9 and 10, funding will be reduced to 30% of costs. The MOU was signed on the 25[th] February 2016. 

SGP intends to adhere to the co-funding model and in time hand-over the NGHH to the ultimate beneficiary, where SGP no longer provides funding.

## Forecast 2026 

**Key Features** 

- Potential for construction of toilet and kitchen facilities. 

- Other infrastructure projects to continue to support the new facility. 

- Self-funding initiatives to be prioritized. 

- Support for family planning programmes. 

It is expected that further infrastructure work will continue in 2026. These will include:

## **Sustainability** 

During 2026, SGP will prioritise initiatives to initiate sustainable funding methods through the Catholic church, the local community, the District and the Ministry of Health. Whilst there are charges for consultations with the medical staff at NGHH from the patients, SGP will extend funding sources more widely. 

SGP will start the process of UCMB accreditation and membership. 

SGP will be seeking support from the Kisoro District to drive through this plan for sustainability.

## Leadership and Management 

The  St  Christopher  Nkuringo  Green  Hill  Health  Centre  (NGHH)  is  run  in accordance to a memorandum of understanding (MOU) signed between three parties involved with the project. The parties are: 


1st party – Singing Gorilla Projects (SGP) (the funders). 

2nd party – The Catholic Parish of Rubuguri (the owners of the land and building). 

3rd party – The management (the operators). 

SGP undertakes to: 

1. Fundraise and provide finances and materials for use in the implementation and construction of the NGHH. 

2. Participate in the project development, management, and logistics. 

3. To elect a Board of Directors to offer leadership and involve in monitoring the activities of NGHH. 

4. Promote and provide Primary Health Care in accordance to the Uganda Government Health Mandate. 

5. Train personnel and health workers to provide health services at NGHH. 

RC Parish of Rubuguri undertakes to: 

1. To provide land to the SGP at no cost, for the construction of NGHH. 

2. To provide a committee to provide direction and management, resources and manpower to construct the NGHH. 

3. To be available for election on the Board of Directors. 

4. To ensure all the villages within the Nteko Parish are reached and benefit from the services provided by the NGHH. 

SGP supplies funds for: 

1. Facilities management and maintenance 

2. Infrastructure projects 

3. Management services 

4. Medical supplies and equipment 

5. Payroll of staff 

6. Training of staff 

## Management 

The Health projects are managed and run by the Catholic Church. The Manager provides local leadership to the project. Communications are managed through quarterly board meetings, where participants from all parties are present. The

manager also provides oversight at the clinic in terms of supervision of staff, monitors drug stock and makes the necessary drug purchases on a monthly basis. 

## Education Projects 

Supporting educational initiatives is a cornerstone of the SGP activity. Ensuring children stay at school for longer and achieve better results will improve the welfare of communities and enrich the lives of individuals. It is of paramount importance that children stay in education for as long as possible to provide themselves with the best opportunities and choices in their lives. 

This can take the form of supporting a child at one of the private schools or providing  more  general funding  and  support  for  children, teaching staff  and building school infrastructure in government and community schools specifically. Funding of activities at the government and community schools is done on a project-by-project basis as well as providing funders the opportunity to support a child at a government school. 

SGP has a policy of supporting government and community schools as a priority as private schools can receive funds from non SGP sources and children who go to private schools can clearly afford to do so. 

## Infrastructure & bio toilets 

Since  SGP  has  been  providing support  to  the  Kisoro  District,  the funding  of infrastructure  and  construction  projects  in  schools  has  been  a  key  feature. Infrastructure support for schools ranged from provision of iron sheets for roofing to bio toilet and classroom construction. 

## Teachers 

SGP funds the salaries of teachers in schools at Rutooma, and previously at St. Christophers (Ntungamo Primary School), Murole. 

## Lightening Arrestors 

SGP have provided lightning arrestors at schools in Akengeyo, Murole, Nombe, Rubuguri  Primary  and  St.  Josephs  Rubuguri.  SGP  will  continue  to  provide lightning arrestors when requested to do. 

## Textbooks 

SGP has provided textbooks at schools in Suma, Ntungamo and Rutooma as well as construction of a library in Iryavumba High School Rubuguri. 

## School fees 

SGP provide school fees for 46 children. It is the SGP strategy to reduce the total amount invested in school fess in future years, to ensure that more funding is 12

## Forecast 2026 

**Key Features**  11 children supported  Over 40 schools supported  Managed by Alexsandra Kamanyire and supported by Perey Ngabirano 

Budgets  have  decreased  for  the  Education  projects  with  no  infrastructure initiatives planned. 

Should infrastructure projects be initiated they will continue to focus on facilities for girls’ latrines and changing rooms. This will support the initiative for keeping girls at school for longer. In turn, more girls will proceed through education to provide choices for more varied career opportunities. 

## Management 

The Education projects are run by Alexsandra Kamanyire and supported by Perey Ngabirano. The manager identifies poor and needy families that cannot afford a child’s education requirements. They initiate SGP intervention, and the child is helped according to the needs (these may include among others; provision of school fees, study materials and child’s upkeep). In addition, schools that are in need  are  identified  and  the  necessary  support  is  given  (these  may  include among  others;  provision  of  roofing  iron  sheets,  construction  of  classrooms, 14

## Empower Her 

**Key Features**  Over 20 women engaged.  Activity delivering income. 

Continued funding for vocational projects in 2026 will include the funding of the Empower Her initiative started in 2019. During 2020 and 2021, much of the activity in this project had to cease due to Covid-19 lockdown restrictions and protocols. 

The Empower Her project has been set up to support young women who have had their education interrupted by teenage pregnancy. The project provides the tools  and  knowledge  they  need  to  build  their  self-esteem,  restore  their confidence and develop skills to sustain themselves financially. 

The Empower Her project has a dedicated classroom in Rubuguri equipped with manual sewing machines. To provide the tuition, teachers are contracted to provide classes in basket weaving, bead work, dress making and sewing skills. 

The Empower Her project also provides seminars and tutorials, presented by successful women as role models. This initiative is provided to illustrate options and life choices available to break the cycle of under achievement and early pregnancy. 

This initiative is fully funded by SGP, with materials, tuition costs and buildings costs. Products that are made by the group, that are taken for sale overseas are accounted for and the Empower Her members are compensated for the sale of products. 

SGP will also fund on a discretionary basis other community-based projects that provide services for women.

## Community Projects 

Community projects are delivered through supporting water capture, and solar power provision. 

Water projects are based around the delivery of three types of initiatives: 

1. Water tank installation, (3,000 litre and 5,000 litre) 

2. Water pipe research and installation (use of hydraulic ram technology) 3. Water filter installation 

Children collect the water for household needs. A trip to the water sources in the valleys and spring sources in the hills twice a day, has now been replaced with well-located water tanks. Children now spend more time at school. Standards are improving in educational  results  providing  better  choices  in the lives  of the community. 

Since 2014, over 76 water tanks and water filters have been installed over an extensive area. Water tanks and water filters have been installed across the Nteko Ridge, from Nkuringo to Kabaya, Suma, Chicomo and Rugandu villages as well as in Rubuguri, Kisoro, Lake Mutanda areas and in the Wakiso district.
