ACHIEVEMENTS
As the living hope group members our children have been beneficiaries since the funding commenced and the following are the achievements;
Living hope group initiative of supporting our children has demonstrably transformed the lives of our youths hence equipping them with knowledge, skills and confidence to contribute positively to their families and communities at large.
The mentors still played their roles of encouraging children to have moral behaviors like discipline, abstinence more so to this young generation of today and more emphasis being put on the children to study harder since they are provided with the all the necessities for school.
Our parents have responded to their role of supporting hence paying half of their children’s fees and this has made the activity/work easier because they are ever monitoring these children while at school and home thus this is improving the children’s standards of education.
We were able to provide children with scholastic material and pay half of the school fees for them as it is a mandate to the Living Hope Group of extending the support to them.
RECOMMENDATION
The mentors must get dedicated enough to mobile and sensitize children/students on peer education The parents and the mentors should continue to encourage the students to study hard for a better future and keep on reminding them that education is the key to success.
As Living Hope Group we just encourage ourselves to get committed to working with the River Fund USA and this will continue to impact the lives of our children and the entire communities at large. A final recommendation goes to our parents that they should/MUST be appreciative to what River Fund USA the work is doing to uplift the standards of the children and as well the families.
CONCLUSION
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the River Fund Team in USA and our donors GlobalGiving for walking with us this journey and your support to our youths in Uganda is the foundation upon which success has been built.
*Note from The River Fund. We will be conducting a site visit in February 2026.
