Our Story

It started with a question in the community

RFCFU began by teaching the best common practices of agriculture, financial literacy, garbage management and psychosocial support as an alternative way of living for the last-mile communities of Uganda, focusing on orphans, children, TB victims, refugees, people with disabilities, widows and women at large.

Founded in 2024, we support rural communities using research-based approaches to enable the full realization of their potential and their participation in the decisions that shape their socio-economic empowerment.

Since inception we have supported schools, community groups and teenage mothers, supplementing government programs, and walked children through primary and secondary school with formal education, vocational studies, guidance, counseling and mentorship.

Our Mission

To support rural communities using research-based approaches that enable the full realization of their potential and their participation in decision-making processes that impact their socio-economic empowerment.

  • Reach the last mile, especially the most vulnerable
  • Turn knowledge into livelihoods through skilling
  • Supplement government programs, never replace communities

What Drives Us

We believe the people closest to a problem hold the solution. We measure success by dignity restored, children kept in school, and livelihoods built.

  • Youth-led and member-based
  • Grounded in the communities we serve
  • Non-partisan and non-violent
