Each year, REACH offer opportunities for supporters to travel to Uganda with us to visit our program and volunteer at Arlington Junior School and at the Beatrice Tierney Health Clinics. Traveling with REACH to Uganda is an opportunity to explore and stay in Africa at a relatively low cost and to contribute your talents to a meaningful program. Our trips also give our students, faculty, and staff the chance to interact with donors and supporters face-to-face, which brings honor and dignity to the community. This year, REACH is offering three chaperoned trips to Uganda: Teacher Trip, Adult and Family Trip and Teen Service Trip. Download the guide to our full trip offerings or look at the short summaries below! E-mail your trip leader for Information Sessions in December & January.

Teens contribute to a meaningful, life changing program through service opportunities such as spending time in our primary schools with students and teachers, mentoring and playing games, kicking off their yearly reading challenge, and volunteering at our health clinics and visiting students in their homes. The trip will include fun excursions, such as hiking to waterfalls and going on a 3-day safari in Murchison Falls!

My experience at REACH has inspired me to become more aware and active in education opportunities around the world to ensure all children have access and ability to achieve all they can.
