Donela Schools
Quality Education for a Bright Future
The mission of Donela Schools is to provide Godly, quality and affordable education that will equip this generation to transform our community and nation. Currently the Schools serve nearly 1200 children from preschool through twelfth grade at three locations in central Uganda.
We launched our first campus in partnership with Bombo Church in 2008 after discovering a lack of quality schools for our sponsored children to attend. If Uganda's children were going to rise up and out of the poverty they were born into, it was vital they receive an education that would set them up for success.
Together with the support of donors, we have since opened two more schools in the towns of Wobulenzi and Kakooge. When children receive quality education and life skills training rooted in Scripture, their lives are changed and their communities transformed.

Donela School Fund
Scripture-based
Donela Orange Schools are founded on Christian values, providing children with the education they need to succeed and a foundation of faith from which they will grow. Students study core academic subjects, including English language arts, math, and science. Prayer is integrated into the daily curriculum, and students attend chapel weekly. High school students have additional opportunities to grow spiritually.
Academic Success
We offer each student a custom academic plan designed to meet their individual needs and set them up for success. Donela High School offers a unique curriculum that allows students to concurrently work toward certification in a trade while completing core subjects.
Zoo-phonics
Thanks to the generosity of our donors, Donela Schools were able to retain their staff and continue providing for the needs of children in the community during the 2020-2021 school year. Many campus refurbishments were completed, helping the school to attract significant enrollment following the Covid-19 shutdown. Despite the challenges of the last few years, Donela Schools have thrived.
