ACTION FOR CHILDREN OF AGAGO 

We are established to relief poverty and other disadvantages of children and young people living in Agago, in northern Uganda as a result of 25 years of civil strife in the area. We provide services to the children and young people in the form of running a full primary school. Provide the school with scholastic materials, provide parents with supporting their childrens' health.

  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
  • This charity appears to be dormant
