Welcome to the School of Hope! We are a non-profit organisation founded by Clayton Cross after an eye-opening visit to the House of Hope orphanage in Uganda as a volunteer aid worker. Inspired by the resilience and courage of the children he encountered, Clayton dedicated himself to creating a brighter future for the orphans and the local community. He is joined by Jack Bear who represents a new generation seeking to support vulnerable children of Uganda after his own volunteer experience of seeing their plight.
Our mission is to provide a holistic education and support system for needy and vulnerable children in Uganda. We plan to build new permanent classrooms, to provide a safe and comfortable learning environment for our students. This empowers them to secure employment and build a stable foundation for their future.
Our goals are to Educate children to ensure they can have a better life, gain employment and a sense of purpose in life.
To improve children’s quality of life with better education and medical treatments.
Empower young people through education and life skills to achieve their dreams and become valued members of their community.
One of Our Volunteer Story
“I really enjoyed my experience at School of Hope. I have never seen poverty before and there is a difference between knowing about poverty and living in poverty!! It’s one thing to see it and go back to your hotel room with ensuite and hot showers and fine dining and then live in it with no electricity, no hot water and a bowl of rice and beans to eat. That’s when you realise the difference. I feel privileged to have been there and hope the children continue to benefit from School of Hope’s dedication to them.”
