Lindner Foundation Uganda is an initiative of Hans Lindner Stiftung, the charity arm of Hans Lindner International based in Arnstorf Germany. Hans Lindner Stiftung has been supporting education of vulnerable children and youth in Uganda through other organizations since 1999. However, in 2005, Lindner Foundation Uganda was launched to directly implement activities. The Foundation’s Board of Trustees, the same members of the Board of Hans Lindner Stiftung, is responsible for its funding.

The Foundation’s activities are monitored by a team of eight staff members led by a Country Manager. The monitoring process includes school and home visits. During such visits effort is made to ensure and enhance good academic performance and the general welfare of the beneficiaries.
