PROJECTS

Since 2014 we support the Victory Primary School in Kampala, Kazo (in one of the four slums of Kampala) and since 2015 in a rural region, at St. Marks School,Wanteete, Kayunga District and since 2016 at Rainbow House of Hope for the youth in Kampala.

WHAT HAVE WE ACHIEVED SO FAR?

Victory Primary School:

• Renovation of the roof of the school
• Mattresses for Boarding School
• Mosquito nets for the Boarding School
• Improvement of the fireplace (this can save more than two thirds of the firewood for cooking)
• Installing a water tank , to collect rainwater for drinking water
• The old buildings without windows have been in danger of collapsing (in 2 classrooms of a size of 10 square meters! have been teached around 50 kids). We could built up new rooms for the children
• In the school kitchen could be built 2 new chimneys. Now the smoke is not anymore drawing into the classrooms
• Distribution of reusable sanitary pads (www.afripads.com) to the needy girls.Girls often miss school because of having no access to monthly hygienical products

Wanteete, Kayunga:

• Support medical research for children
• A concrete floor came into the kitchen and dishes are bought for the children

WHAT SHOULD BE DONE?

• Purchase of required textbooks

• Distribution of mosquito nets

Victory Primary School:

• The school latrines for the 500 pupils are in very bad condition and not usable anymore in foreseeable time. We need urgently financial support to build new latrins
• Most of the children are living under poor conditions and schoolfees are not affordable. School sponsorships could help

• We welcome also schoolsponsorship , often school is the only opportunity to get one warm meal daily
• Installation of a water tank

Rainbow House of Hope:

• The costs of water are regularly increasing. We intend to build up a watertank to collect rainwater.Money can be saved and be used for scueing or school material
• Support of young women getting an education as taylor or hairdresser. The future is also craft in Uganda
