4 + 3 = MORE REFUGEES EMPOWERED

We are thrilled to announce expansion in Uganda!

There are seven main refugee settlements in northern Uganda that are collectively home to over 800,000 of the more than 1,000,000 South Sudanese that fled across the border.

Because of your faithful support, Seed Effect has grown to empower over 46,000 members across four of these refugee settlements and neighboring villages*.

In fact, we now have the largest network of savings groups in the region! Our team remains hard at work, expanding our reach at these existing branches to meet the ever-increasing demand for our program.

As this work continues, we are thrilled to announce that we’re also expanding in Uganda!

We recently received a grant from the Excellence in Giving Kingdom Giving Fund to help launch three new Seed Effect branches* to reach the three largest remaining under-served refugee settlements in northern Uganda over the next two years.

The Kingdom Giving Fund has generously committed the funds needed for the first year of operations at each of these new branches, as well as a portion of funds needed for the second and third year of operations.

In addition to the growth we anticipate across our four existing branches, through this expansion, Seed Effect will be able to serve an additional 34,000 South Sudanese refugees and Ugandans over the next five years!
