The Foundation for Community Development and Empowerment (FCDE)
Organization Description
FCDE builds local capacity to lead community change in rural East Africa. We believe that community development is most effective and sustainable when it is locally driven. For 10 years, we have worked with 50+ grassroots organizations in rural Western Uganda to strengthen nonprofit performance and amplify impact through multi-year partnerships. To enhance partners' capacity, FCDE has provided access to international pro bono support through culturally immersive internship programs pairing students and professionals with local grassroots organizations. We’ve worked with Princeton in Africa, US Peace Corps, and Global Health Corps.
