Supporting a Ugandan School in Need

$610 donated
Given by 8 generous donors in 9 weeks

I am fundraising to raise money for Hebron Junior School in Entebbe, Uganda, where I will be volunteering on a sports education project.

Auckland

Hebron Junior School is located in a very poor area in Entebbe and in much need. I would love to be able to support the School in some way financially, in the hope of helping the children receive the best education possible with their limited resources. The school is in need of International textbooks, scholastic materials, sports equipment and better infrastructure, to which these donations would contribute to.

Hebron Junior School is located in Entebbe, along Garuga road in Nalugala village. It was founded by Lwanga Peter in 2010.

The Vision of the School: To become the best quality education developers, reach and lift the needy and stop the spread of HIV/AIDS.

The school started with only 5 children, but now has a population of 437 children. The school is accommodating 40 children, among which twenty 20 are total orphans. The school carries out activities which include; sports, HIV/AIDS awareness, scouting, and outreaches.

I will be taking donations all the way until I leave Uganda. I will be posting a blog while I'm away and will be able to keep you informed of what specifics the school needs and how the donations will be helping.

Any support would be greatly appreciated!

I am currently on a gap year after completing high school last year, and I am travelling to Uganda on the 30th of July to volunteer my services through IVHQ(International Volunteer HQ). I will be serving on a sports education project for 6 weeks at Hebron Junior School, aiming to teach the young school children sports activities and introduce them to new sports.
