Mission: Oysters & pearls is an ongoing educational program inclusive of the blind with emphasis on teaching science, technology, engineering and math to students in africa, primarily uganda. We are also working with students on other educational curriculum such as wildlife, conservation and sports. We advocate opportunities for women.
Programs: We support education for the visually impaired, blind and sighted students in two ways, 1) with physical tools and 2) with the knowledge and experience from our teachers and mentors. From this we have created two areas for our educational giving programs: 1) direct aid and 2) direct involvement. Both are of equal importance for an outstanding educational experience and a solid foundation for students to become contributing ugandan citizens.
