We are a community based social enterprise on a journey to build the first sustainable rural city in Uganda. 

Invest in us as we build the sustainable rural city in Africa! 

Our work is premised on the belief that using a holistic and participatory development approach to design and implement community initiatives can empower local communities and create prosperity. Since 2019, our ecosystem of 20 social businesses and community projects serves 10,000 clients through the targeted provision of services/products across the education, health, agriculture, tourism, and finance sectors.  So far, 2,000 learners have benefited from our functional adult education, primary education, early childhood education, and vocational skilling activities. 8,000 patients have been treated at our health facility. 100 women who are members of our Shea butter Coop have seen their daily household incomes triple from under $1 to now $4, etc. Moreover, our interventions are successful because we actively involve the community in discussing their needs, views, and priorities while giving them the tools they need to solve their own challenges. Across and beyond Okere, the impact of our work shines bright and the international media have comprehensively covered our radical approach to rural transformation.  Okere City's initiatives are driven by actual community needs and the implementation of project activities is led by community members. Overall, Okere City strives to be a community organization and social enterprise that creates multiple opportunities for agrarian reforms and rural transformation in Okere Parish by encouraging open and forward-thinking, mobilizing, organizing, and training the rural population through a series of innovative projects, activities, and techniques so that they are able to develop practical solutions to the day to day challenges they face. Okere City seeks to be an enabler for the rural community in the parish to be more imaginative, cooperative, creative, innovative, and enterprising as prerequisites to make them more progressive, empowered, and successful. At the core of our work is ensuring that we strengthen the dignity of our rural community members by providing the support infrastructures that enable them to become responsible for shaping and designing their own futures and destinies.  Our current strategic direction is being guided by the Okere City 2030 Strategy which aims to build the first sustainable rural city in Africa.  
Okere City is certified by NGOsource as equivalent to a U.S. public charity under the International Revenue Service's Equivalency Determination standard. 

Okere Community Development Project

National human services organization. Our mission is to foster stability and resiliency, and provide a safety net for performing arts and entertainment professionals over their lifespan.

Founded in 1882, we serve all professionals—and not just actors—in film, theater, television, music, opera, radio and dance through programs that address our community's unique and essential needs.

Employment in any division of the performing arts and entertainment industry is unpredictable. Work is erratic, security is fleeting and health insurance is often just a dream. For all of these reasons and many more, The Actors Fund is an indispensable and deeply significant part of the entire entertainment community.

As a national organization with offices in New York, Los Angeles and Chicago, we directly serve thousands of performing arts and entertainment professionals across the country every year, in person and via our online resources. Our programs are wide in scope, responsive in nature and produce significant results.
