Student Sponsorships

Become a Student Sponsor

Our hope is that every child in Bukasa village gets an opportunity to learn, grow, and discover the love of Christ. Through Student Sponsorships, you can help provide schooling that changes the life of a child.

In Uganda, public education is not free. With the average unskilled worker earning just $3–5 USD per day, most families simply cannot afford to send their children to school.

To help meet this need, iheartBukasa partnered with Bishop George to establish Ever Increasing Children’s Center Student Sponsorship program. This eases the financial burden from parents and guardians and provides children with opportunities to learn and begin building a brighter future for themselves, their families, and their beloved country of Uganda.

When you sponsor a student for $40 a month, you’re providing far more than a seat in a classroom. Your monthly gift provides tuition, books, school supplies, a daily meal, and biblical instruction—meeting practical needs while helping each child grow academically and spiritually. Along the way, students develop confidence, discover their God-given abilities, and are welcomed through an open school door that would otherwise remain closed.

Sponsoring a Student is as easy as 1…2..3…!

1. Meet Our
Students!

Take a moment to browse their photos, read their profiles, and learn a little about their families and their lives in Uganda. When you find a child you’d like to sponsor, simply complete and submit the Student/Sponsor Form to begin the sponsorship process.

2. Start Your Monthly Sponsorship!

Set up your secure, recurring $40 monthly sponsorship through World Partners, the global mission arm of the Missionary Church, Inc. World Partners receives and processes your gift and provides the appropriate charitable-giving documentation.

3. Welcome Your Student!

Once your Student/Sponsor form is submitted and your monthly support is initiated, iheartBukasa will send a personal thank-you email with your student’s photo and profile. We’ll also notify Bishop George and the EICC staff so they can share the good news and celebrate with your student and family.

Meet Our Students

Anita Namyalo

Anita is a bright 7-year-old in Primary 2. She lives with her father and younger brother. Since losing her mother during the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020, Anita’s father has worked selling chapatti on the street to provide for his family. Despite his diligence, his modest income does not cover school fees. A sponsor’s support would give Anita the opportunity to enroll in school.

Device Magomu

Device is a cheerful 10-year-old in P4. He enjoys playing football with his younger brother and has a natural talent for sports, though math is his favorite school subject. Device lives with his single mother, who works long days selling fresh produce on the village streets to provide for her family. A sponsor’s kindness would help Device remain in school and strengthen his love of learning.

Enock Kisulani

Enock is an enthusiastic 8-year-old in P2 who loves math and playing football. He and his older brother live with their single mother, who earns a small income as a street vendor. Because she cannot consistently afford school fees, their attendance is intermittent. Each day, Enock helps his family by carrying water home from the village well.

Jemimah Kemigusha

Jemimah is an 11-year-old student in Primary 4. She lives with her single mother and four siblings. To provide for the children her mother works washing, mending, and tailoring clothing for neighborhood families. Jemimah’s father is seeking better-paying work in the surrounding regions, but the family’s income is still not enough to cover school fees. A sponsorship would open the door for Jemimah to stay in school.

Moses Muwanguzi

Moses is a shy 8-year-old in P2 who loves math problems and creative play. He and his
younger brother live with their single father, who works as a hardware store keeper. His modest income barely covers necessities for the family, making school attendance intermittent at best. Through sponsorship, Moses can receive consistent education, a daily meal, encouragement and hope.

Violah Namwase

Violah is a kind and gentle 7-year-old in Primary 1. She lives with her mother and three siblings. With Violah’s father absent from the family, her mother works hard washing and mending clothing, but her modest income is not enough to provide school fees. Through the faithful support of a sponsor, Violah can continue building a strong educational foundation while discovering the confidence and hope that come with learning.

Wisdom Wandera

Wisdom is 3 years old and is in Baby Class- the first level of nursery school. He lives with his grandmother who works as a seamstress and washer woman to provide for her three grandchildren. When parents aren’t available or are unable to care for their own children it is common for relatives to step in to provide love, food and shelter. A sponsorship would provide a loving hand to both child and grandmother.

 Student Sponsorship: FAQ’s

World Partners is the global mission arm of the Missionary Church, Inc. They serve as the financial partner in our ministry, including processing gifts and recurring  payments for our Student Sponsorship Program, maintaining financial records, and providing donors with appropriate charitable-giving documentation. This allows iheartBukasa to focus on our relationship with EICC, our sponsors, and the students we serve.

Your Sponsorship is securely processed through World Partners yet their system is not programmed to track individual students. So, you will not see your student’s name or photo there. While World Partners processes the financial side of the sponsorship, iheartBukasa tracks and manages the Student/Sponsor relationship side.

Once you’ve submitted your Student Sponsorship Form and initiated your recurring monthly gift, we’ll confirm your sponsorship by sending you the photo and profile of your sponsored student.

Your monthly sponsorship helps provide tuition, books, school supplies, a daily meal, and biblical instruction for your sponsored student. It also supports the caring school environment where children can learn, grow, and experience the love of Christ.

A dollar can accomplish far more in Uganda than most Americans might imagine. Because local wages and the costs of many goods and services are lower than in the United States, even a relatively modest monthly gift can make a meaningful difference. A $40 monthly sponsorship provides an extraordinary opportunity to make a lasting difference in the life of a child.

Yes. When you choose a student from our Sponsorship page, your sponsorship is dedicated to helping that child attend Ever Increasing Children’s Center without their family having to bear the burden of school fees.

No. Sponsorship funds are not given directly to students or their families. Instead, they help provide tuition, instruction, materials and curriculum, daily meals, teacher salaries, and the other classroom essentials that make your sponsored child’s education possible.

Yes. After your sponsorship is confirmed, we will send you your student’s photo, a brief introduction, and a personal thank-you. We also hope to share occasional updates so you can celebrate your student’s growth and progress.

If your sponsored student is no longer able to attend Ever Increasing Children’s Center, we’ll contact you and invite you to sponsor another child so your generosity can continue changing a young life.

Absolutely! Many sponsors choose to support more than one student. Each sponsorship gives another child the opportunity to learn, grow, and experience the love of Christ.

We believe good stewardship honors both God and our supporters. That’s why we are committed to managing every sponsorship with integrity, transparency, and personal care. Thank you for partnering with us to invest in the lives of children in Bukasa.

Sponsoring a child is simple and life-changing! We’re here to help make the process easy and personal. If you have questions about sponsorships or EICC, please contact us. We’d love to hear from you!
