Together We Are Strengthening Humanity

We've been campaigning for a green and peaceful future for 40 years — and we're not stopping now. It's time to rise up like never before and fight for our climate and communities.

Our Vision And Goals

The Dunstan Wai Foundation supports the vitally-needed education of girls and young women from South Sudan and Northern Uganda by providing them with full scholarships to their local secondary and tertiary schools.

Our Impact

Over its 17-year history, the Foundation has financed more than 1400 secondary-school scholarships, and our students are currently studying to become nurses, midwives, teachers, lab technicians, nutritionists, project managers and more.

Why Girls Need Help

The Wai Foundation seeks to address the overwhelming gender disparity in school enrollment in one of the world’s highest female illiteracy zones.

Where We Work

The Wai Foundation was created in 2005 to honor the memory of Dunstan Wai, a former World Bank staff member originally from Kajo Keji County, South Sudan. Because Dunstan recognized that lifting girls out of poverty required them to have increased access to education, the Wai scholarship program was established both in his birthplace in South Sudan and in Northern Uganda where he had been a refugee.

Impact of your gifts

Your generous donation to the Dunstan Wai Foundation enables us to:

Support Dreams

Finance the educational ambitions of girls in a developing nation. Two thirds of the one hundred and eighty four students awarded scholarships for secondary and tertiary education in 2022 are South Sudanese, the rest Ugandan.

Support Dreams

Provide a Lifeline for our South Sudanese students forced to flee to refugee camps in northern Uganda in 2017, by enrolling them in local boarding schools outside their refugee camps.

Enhance Life Skills

Enhance life skills through motivational workshops for our students that provide competency and camaraderie and deliver advice on dealing with negativity in challenging environments.

Bridge The Gap

Bridge the Gap by providing necessities to girls who cannot afford to attend school without extra help, and as we did during school closures due to Covid-19, encourage students to keep focused, by organizing learning groups with tutors, and by providing radios, reading lamps and educational materials.

Empowerment & Education

Provide empowerment through further education for secondary-school graduates by awarding tertiary scholarships to pursue advanced education and training in the health sector, project management, teaching, agriculture, nutrition, business administration, information technology, among others. Out of forty-two students funded since 2011, thirty-five have graduated

Self-Sufficiency

Assure self-sufficiency for secondary school graduates who did not pursue further schooling by financing short-term skill courses in lucrative fields such as hairdressing and dressmaking
