You and I Foundation

Mission

The You & I Foundation (YAIF) is a Ugandan NGO supporting underserved neighborhoods in Uganda, serving nationals and refugees living in the country. We take a 50-50 approach that spreads our resources and efforts equally among both populations, and we work to bridge cultural divides through exchanges, art, and collaborations. With the support of to.org, we have built a school and community centers in Kyebando Kisalosalo as well as a center in Nakivale Refugee camp; these centers offer tailored programming in each location to address the needs of the community.
