How it began
Planned in April, finished by September.
Work on the orphanage was planned from April 2025, when The Anonymous Project and the school began working together.
Two orphanage blocks were built on the school site and completed by September 2025. The children live, eat and learn on one campus, a short walk from their classrooms and the masjid.

Registering every child
We went to them, across Uganda.
The school directors travelled the country to register and admit each child.
The children come from across Uganda, and most have lost one or both parents. They are of every faith and denomination, and every one of them is welcome here.
