About Us
Who We Are
NITEO Uganda was founded in 2007 with a vision to see Uganda thriving through the power of literacy.
NITEO is a latin word which means “to thrive, to flourish, to shine bright” and we believe it is through the ability to read that bridges are built to bright and hopeful futures.

Our Vision
To see every child in Uganda thriving through the power of literacy! The ability to read changes lives and builds bridges to bright and hopeful futures.
Our Mission
Open Books, Open Minds, Open Doors. We address literacy inequity by providing books to communities with limited access to books.
OUR CORE VALUES
Reciprocity
Everyone has something to offer and everyone has something to learn.
Respect
All people will be treated with dignity. All opinions will be heard and valued.
Relationship
At the heart of literacy learning are healthy relationships - with ourselves, with others, and with our world.
Sustainable
Every participant becomes a conduit of literacy learning for others, which is not only sustainable but an exponential investment in future generations.
Community
Literacy learning flourishes in communities, rather than in isolated academic endeavors.
Shareable and Accessible
We develop our programs so that they can be easily used, and we share our work to further literacy equity.
