ABOUT US
We are a registered cultural performing troupe in Uganda and have been in operation since 2000.
The composition of our group so far is 48 able, well trained and professional youth. The majority are orphans and disadvantaged persons.
Our mission is to create a self reliant society, jobs creation, develop children talents and members in to responsible and useful citizens of this country. Be a father and mother to these orphans and disadvantaged children.
The troupe recruits the youth every end of the year, trains these children in performing arts, theater art, self esteem, Art work, art designs and of course stage performances.
The troupe also takes these children to school, for formal education. So far our pioneers have finished Makerere University and other higher institutions of learning. We also provide basic necessities like shelter food, medical care, clothing etc.
