About Us

We have been in existence since 2017

The Zero Dropout Initiative (ZEDO) was established to combat school dropouts. Through Zedo Aid, we support school and community campaigns that foster safe, supportive, and conducive learning environments, ensuring the retention and successful completion of education for at-risk learners. Our 4C Strategy to prevent school dropouts focuses on the following pillars:.

  • Creating Awareness – Promoting the importance of education and the risks of dropping out.
  • Capacity building for community leaders - Empowering leaders to address dropouts effectively
  • Community engagement–Uniting community pillars to collaboratively address school dropouts
  • Child Support-Targeted support to ensure positive learning outcomes.

Success Stories

Capacity Building for Community Education Leaders

Community environments most directly impact learners' ability to complete school, we have equipped over 300 Local community leaders, and we want to provide more community education leaders ( mostly head teachers, LC1, and Religious leaders) with skills to implement practices to encourage action that enhances their critical role in ending community school dropouts.

Child Support Programs

We support literacy for 600 lower primary pupils in Kajjansi Town Council, providing 600+ reading materials to enhance reading skills and reduce dropout risks. Many students struggle with math and English, leading to disengagement and potential dropout. Addressing struggles in math and English helps keep students engaged, building a solid foundation for academic success.
