The Sandstone HopeFest 2025

Partnership Proposal

At Sandstone School of Languages and Computer Studies, we believe that education must go beyond classrooms—it must inspire a lifelong culture of empathy and service. This belief led to the birth of our flagship outreach program, The Sandstone HopeFest.

The Sandstone HopeFest is an annual initiative focused on celebrating and supporting vulnerable children across Uganda—those with physical and mental disabilities, orphans, and children battling life-threatening conditions.

In December 2024, during our annual Sandstone Charity Week, we visited two remarkable organizations: Eseza Foundation (which supports children with cancerous tumors), and Support Disabled Children Ggaba (which cares for children with autism and Down syndrome). We provided food, clothing, medical equipment, and financial assistance to help sustain their daily operations. Over 150 children were directly impacted, and the response from caregivers was deeply moving.

One caregiver told us, “You didn’t just bring things—we felt seen, remembered, and valued.”

Inspired by this overwhelming impact, we are transforming this initiative into something even more powerful: The Sandstone HopeFest 2025.

(Pictures from the 2024 Charity Week will be attached to this proposal to give you a visual glimpse of the joy and gratitude experienced by the children and caregivers.)

What is The Sandstone HopeFest?

The Sandstone HopeFest 2025 is a one-day, joy-filled charity celebration scheduled for December 15, 2025. We will bring together organizations caring for:
– Children with physical and mental disabilities (e.g., autism, cerebral palsy, Down syndrome)
– Orphans and abandoned children
– Children battling chronic illnesses like cancer

This event will be hosted at a hired venue and will include games, performances, meals, gift-giving, and resource support for the participating children and their organizations. Our goal is to directly impact over 500 children and support 10+ care centers with vital resources and infrastructure.
