Our Story

A Vision Born from Compassion

"I grew up in Matugga and witnessed firsthand the struggles families face. I knew I had to do something."

In 2018, Angella Kawala founded Virtuous Heart Foundation with a simple mission: give every child the opportunity to learn, grow, and dream. What started as a small school has grown into a comprehensive community development organization.
