Raise the Roof Academy

Join us in a prayer for our RTRA community today:

God, watch over our students as they learn, grow, laugh, play, and discover who they’re becoming. Give them teachers who encourage them, friends who support them, and a community that reminds them they are known and loved. Protect their health. Grow their confidence. Make room for their dreams. And help all of us who care about RTRA continue showing up for them, in big ways and small.

Amen.

Thank you to New Vision for covering our Beautiful Uganda song release on Independence Day! "Through Beautiful Uganda, Raise the Roof Academy seeks to celebrate the country's rich cultural heritage, natural beauty, and the spirit of togetherness that unites its people. The song also fits into a wider conversation about the role of music in celebrating national identity, bringing people together, and presenting Uganda through the voices of its younger generation."

Walking into a classroom where your teacher and friends notice when you’re having a hard day really matters to a child. It creates a sense of safety and helps them feel connected to the world around them.

At Raise the Roof Academy, caring for students means caring about more than their grades, it means being the community that notices. On , we’re celebrating how grateful we are for that community.

Sponsorship is about creating opportunities for a student to learn, grow, receive care, build relationships, discover their strengths, and imagine a bright future. Sponsorship helps create a foundation where students can do more than simply attend school. They can thrive.

That’s why sponsorship is the focus of this year’s Vision Dinner. We can’t wait to share more on November 2. Get your tickets at rtra.org

This year’s Vision Dinner is centered around sponsorship and the opportunity to walk alongside students at Raise the Roof Academy as they learn, grow, and imagine their future. One month from today on Monday, November 2nd, we’ll be around the table talking about that future.

It's been a beautiful Sunday at Raise the Roof Academy! We had our prayer service for our 3 candidate classes: Primary 7, Senior 4, and Senior 6. In October and November, they will take their National Exams to determine eligibility for High School, Advanced Level, and University. Let's cheer them on over Zoom! If you sponsor a student in Primary 7, Senior 4, or Senior 6, you can sign up for a Zoom call, and write them a letter celebrating their journey.
