    Hello! We are Malengo, a new non-profit organization whose mission is to facilitate international educational migration. We've had a good year: we more than doubled our program, and 18 young Ugandans are on their way to Germany to start their Bachelor's degrees.

    Our first 7 students from Uganda have been in Germany since October to start their BA degrees. Six months later, all but one have found part-time jobs. Here are their monthly incomes. On average each student sends EUR 165/month back home to their family in Uganda.

    We received a donation of $60,000 from the FTX Foundation earlier this year. In light of recent events, we will return this money. If you want to support our mission of enabling young people from low-income countries to study in Europe, you can donate at malengo.org.
