Together Women Rise invites you to embark on a powerful and immersive journey to Uganda—a land of lush landscapes, vibrant culture, and bold community-led change. This is more than a trip; it’s an opportunity to witness the impact of your generosity and connect with the women and girls whose lives are being transformed through Rise’s mission for global gender equality.

During the trip, you’ll visit three inspiring organizations that Rise has supported:

• Growth Through Learning – Providing full secondary school scholarships for underserved girls, including boarding, meals, books, and mentorship.
• MindLeaps – Using dance to build cognitive and emotional skills among refugee and vulnerable youth, while equipping girls with sexual and reproductive health education.
• Women’s Microfinance Initiative – Empowering rural women with village-level loans and business training to grow sustainable livelihoods.

Beyond these meaningful grantee visits, you’ll explore Uganda’s vibrant cities and stunning landscapes. Discover the cultural richness of Kampala with visits to the King of Buganda’s palace and the Old Kampala Mosque. Experience a traditional dance performance at the Ndere Centre, and shop at local craft markets. In Jinja, enjoy a serene boat cruise to the source of the Nile River, the world’s longest, and relax along its scenic banks. Beverley Francis-Gibson, CEO, will be the Together Women Rise representative on this trip.

The registration deadline is March 12, 2026.
