“Thank you for continuing to support so many young people through their education, despite a very difficult year, economically and politically, in Burundi”
New Generation Leadership Team
The new school year has started in Burundi and, thanks to your ongoing support, 115 children were able to access education in Bujumbura and Muyinga, 5 of them starting school for the first time.
Alongside their academic studies, the children also take part in extra-curricular activities such as football, cricket, dancing and English learning. We find it’s important that they engage in these activities as it helps to develop their social skills and facilitates their personal growth.
As far as meals are concerned, the children staying in New Generation accommodation in Bujumbura have three regular meals, which includes breakfast, lunch and dinner. All the children have maintained overall good health, except for occasions during the year when they fell sick. The other children in the Road to School programme who are not provided with accommodation receive daily special meals (breakfast and lunch) as part of this programme.
As ever, we are greatful for your ongoing support which makes this possible.
