The African SOUP is a burgeoning educational organization that takes after the fabled "Stone Soup" story. Inspired by the initiatives and drive of the local village in which we are rooted, the SOUP exists to provide a hand-up, not a hand-out. The African SOUP works in tandem with the community to address its most vital needs. In addition to an exemplary primary and nursery school, The African SOUP has facilitated a nutritional outreach program, sustainability projects, sponsorships to further education, and the creation of a national project aimed at engaging students through active learning methodology, all inspired by our primary school roots. This shift from traditional Ugandan teaching methods of rote memorization and a lecture-based approach will empower students and teachers with the critical, creative, and ethical thinking skillsets to ensure leadership growth in Uganda. We simply provide the foundation for our programs while our community members, local and international partners, and supporters all bring something deliciously unique to the SOUP.
