Joy of the Lord School Improvement Project

In the heart of Kagumba Village, over 200 children attend Joy of the Lord School, an institution doing its best with what little it has. The current structures are made of weak wooden poles and thatch, with no proper walls, desks, or floors. Children sit on the bare ground. Teachers work without basic resources. Despite this, the community continues to send their children, holding on to the hope that change is possible.

This project will bring that change. With your help, we plan to construct two permanent classroom blocks with solid walls, safe roofing, and proper flooring. Every child will receive a desk, and teachers will be equipped with educational resources to improve the learning experience. This is more than a construction effort, it’s a step toward dignity, structure, and opportunity.

The impact

Safer classrooms will encourage school attendance, reduce dropout rates, and improve academic performance. When children learn in a supportive environment, they gain more than education they gain confidence and a sense of worth. This project is about creating a lasting foundation for future leaders.
