Projects
We have established an "Assisted Attendance Scheme"
at each of the following two schools - keeping over 200 children (whose
guardians cannot afford the 'parental contributions) from dropping out
of
primary school - for just £30 each per year.
The Railway school
scheme is funded by Kings School in
Macclesfield - a big thank you to them. If you know any other schools
who would
like to support a school in Uganda
in this way, please let us know.
Railway
School is also running a “vocational
project” to give 120 vulnerable children (who are
unlikely to go to
secondary school) a chance to learn some useful skills - tailoring,
knitting,
bakery, and handcrafts. All for just £14 per child per year
(plus £8 each of
set-up costs). Those
who attended the
event in March will have seen some of the excellent handcrafts produced
by the
children.
