MUSANA

Beginning in November 2011, Flatirons entered into a partnership with Musana Community Development Organization, working in Iganga, Uganda. Musana is a multi-faceted organization that started as a children’s home and has now grown into a full-fledged community development organization. Currently, Musana has three primary schools, one vocational high school, as well as adult business and trade based programs while offering micro-lending opportunities. They also operate a full-fledged hospital and run a local café. All of Musana’s programs are managed and employed by local Ugandans. The organization is 100% self-sustaining; all operational funding is locally generated and cycled back into the community. Musana is providing education and skill development for men, women and children and changing a community for generations to come.
