Our Story
About Our Uganda Center
Discover the journey, partnerships, and community-driven initiatives that make our center a beacon of hope and transformation
In March 2022, Heights and Minds partnered with Kawempe Youth Centre (KYC) in Kawempe District, Uganda, to integrate a MindUp within the existing community center.
Foundation
The KYC MindUp opened in April 2022, offering a supportive learning environment for pregnant women and parents, offering advice, cooking classes, access to educational material and videos, and workshops focused on child growth and development. KYC hosts climate resilience gardening activities, where families are taught how to grow nutritious food using sustainable practices to address food insecurity.
Originally founded as a library project in 1999, KYC has evolved into a non-governmental organization dedicated to empowering youth through education and recreational activities. KYC collaborates with local and international organizations to improve the literacy and well-being of young people and the broader community.
Currently closed and transitioning to Mobile Mindup in a new location. Stay tuned for updates!
