Build A Primary School for 300 students in Uganda!

Challenge

Due to the cancellation of fundraisers during the global pandemic, donations have dropped. We must replace these funds to secure the construction of our Primary 4 classroom, so that we can continue with our long-term plan to expand the school through Primary 7 & educate 300 students. While children in Uganda have access to public schools, many rural families can't afford the fees, & classes are often overcrowded with as many as 100 kids. The quality of public education is yet another concern.

Solution

Our school provides a first-rate education to children in Uganda. Many of these children had never seen playground equipment & had to be taught how to use it, along with the teachers! Our students are thriving because each child is cared for in a holistic way. Our school is a safe haven to play, learn new skills, and have access to clean water and healthy meals. Constructing the first level will allow our Primary 3 students to graduate in 2021 with a permanent space to continue their education.

Long-Term Impact

Going beyond the school's primary mission, our focus is on sustainable programs that will impact the well-being of the entire community. We achieve this by using our school's grounds and facilities as a community center for weekly children's events, health clinics, women's empowerment groups, vocational training, and more. Our vision is "a Uganda where all children reach their full potential"-starting with Kyanamira. We believe education is the key to help Ugandans become world-changers.
