Registered NGO · Juba, South Sudan · Est. 2016
St. Mary's Global Foundation for Education and Health is a registered non-governmental organization operating in Juba, South Sudan. We work to improve the quality of life in some of the world's most underserved communities by delivering integrated education and healthcare programs to underprivileged children, women, and families across South Sudan. Our approach is community-driven, sustainable, and grounded in local partnership.
Our Mission
To improve the quality of life in South Sudan through sustainable education and health programs that empower communities, build local capacity, and create pathways out of poverty for the most vulnerable populations — particularly underprivileged children and families in Juba and surrounding states.
Our Vision
A South Sudan where every community has access to quality education and healthcare — where no child is denied the chance to learn, and no family goes without essential medical care regardless of where they live or what they have survived.
