The Project will build a mixed day, boarding, and combined primary and secondary school at the heart of Makuach village, the most remote and the poorest village in South Sudan. The school will provide free education to over 3,000 village children and orphans , who lost their parents during the civil war and disasters. The Project will also increase the enrollment and attendance of girls in school. The Project will provide the village with water pumps for cleaning drinking water.
Makuach village is the remote and the poorest village in South Sudan, and has over 3,000 school age children and youth without schools and education. Majority of these children are between 5 and 14 years old. Due to lack of school their village, children walk for many hours and miles through the forests and bushes to attend schools in other villages. Wild animals attack and kill children while attending such schools. For their security, they stay homes without schooling. They need a school!
Makuach village children will receive education, gain skills and knowledge they need to close illiteracy gap, prepare them to move on to next stage of education. Children will no longer walk for many hours and miles in search for an education in other villages. Wild animals will no longer attack and kill them. Children and teachers will no longer learn and teach in the under trees. They will be in a school building and avoid injuries and deaths results from falling tree or branches.
The school will educate all village children gaining skills and knowledge that allow them to find employment and become free poverty stricken. The school will increase a number of children every year receiving free quality education. The school will increase a number of girls who have been denied access to education. Graduates from this school will in turn educate the following generations and help build their communities and the nation.
