About Amazing Love Development Organization

ALDO is a grassroot Canadian charitable organization (#824775852RR0001) founded with a vision to expand access to quality education, training, and leadership skills to the children of Nakyere village, Uganda. ALDO is run by volunteer board members with no salaried employees. Through Amazing Love School, ALDO provides access to education and hands-on skills training to children who would otherwise go without, due to harsh living conditions. Our primary ongoing costs include paying our teachers’ salaries, which are on average $1,800 per year per teacher. Meals and school supplies average out to $35 per student. Our school benefits 400+ students, 20 teachers and support staff and a community of 3,500 people. ALDO’s target population includes orphans, children used as sources of labour, children who suffer abuse and neglect, children living with disabilities, children of parents with disabilities, HIV/AIDS infected and affected children and children who face many risks due to parental separation, domestic violence, alcoholism, and divorce. Most children live off one meal a day provided at the school. ALDO is working to remove the barriers to education by providing a safe learning environment that protects students from exploitation and organized crime. ALDO is currently focused on seven critical areas: • Strengthening early childhood education. • Obtaining literacy and digital reading tools. • Expanding our nutritional feeding program. • Boosting solar power capacity for the school. • Building two additional dormitories (girls and boys). • Completing the skills workshop. • Obtaining emergency transport
