Dormitory beds and education material      

Location:                      Okweta, Uganda

Project leadtime:         12 months

Requestor:                    James Alemu on behalf of Hands for Children

Description of the project:

The project aims at providing beds and needed education essential items to the children of the vulnerable communities in Okweta. The beds and the education essential items will be durable for over 5- to 10 years and serve different sets of students’ overtime. This project will at the end, improve students’ performance and reduce the out-of-school ratio in the community.
With more beds (including mattresses, mosquito nets) and educational supplies, more children are admitted. Without essentials objects such as desks children quickly experience great discomfort in classrooms. Aside from physical stress and discomfort, the children are easily distracted and their attention is lost.
Larger sauce pans should be provided to cook food for a larger number of students. Sewing machines are needed to repair their torn clothes.

- To provide better educational facilities to beneficiaries.

Beneficiaries:

317 children, age 10 – 13 years
