Sponsorship Scheme: At the heart of UgandAid is the sponsorship scheme, through which we offer hope to vulnerable youngsters, the poorest of the poor in Uganda (our current area of operation), by sponsoring vocational training (primarily at Nile Vocational Institute) leading to personal growth, confidence, employment and self-sufficiency. A life-changing, life-giving opportunity for hundreds of students and their extended families. Annual trip to Uganda: **Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)** Usually in February members of the charity trustees and operations team lead a group of like-minded people to Jinja in Uganda, providing the opportunity to regularly meet the students. Although travelling to Uganda was allowed early 2022, we chose not to take a Team. This was primarily due to the fact that although we were fully vaccinated the vaccination programme in Uganda was in its infancy and we didn’t want to run the risk of introducing Covid to anyone in Uganda. The trustees confirm that they have taken into account the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our purpose and objects and in carrying out our activities. ## **Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)** Volunteers: All Trustees work on a voluntary basis.
