The World Giving Report 2025 – Uganda Edition, a collaborative effort between CivLegacy Foundation and the Charities Aid Foundation (CAF), offers deep insights into the giving patterns, motivations, and perceptions of Ugandan citizens. This landmark report draws on a global survey of over 55,000 people in 101 countries, including nearly 1,000 in Uganda. It captures the essence of generosity as a lived practice in Ugandan society, shaped by cultural values, religious teachings, and a communal ethos that prioritizes care, compassion, and support.
