Abstract
This article, published on July 18, 2019, discusses how Mastercard Foundation Scholars founded Rabbits for Education in Kamwenge, Uganda, to help families earn income for school fees. Winning the Resolution Social Venture Challenge provided seed funding and mentorship. The project relies on raising fast-multiplying rabbits, which are easy to rear and yield income through meat, skin, and valuable organic fertilizer.
