On Saturday 30th April 2022 I will cycling all the way to Amsterdam (via Dover, Calais, Bruges, Antwerp & Rotterdam) in aid of the Keframa School Build. The Keframa School Build is a UK based charity that is building a secondary school in Northern Uganda.
It's 45 people. 5 days. 332 miles.
All donations go to the charity itself, as I am funding the cost of the challenge myself.
Keframa School Build:
Education, hope and a future. Three things every Ugandan child wants. Three things the Keframa School Build seeks to provide.
Whilst primary education is relatively accessible in Uganda, the means for secondary school are difficult to come by. The area is deprived of sustainable secondary education for low-income families, and it is still recovering from the impact of the Lord’s Resistance Army, where there are high levels of subsistence living.
The Keframa School Build aims to facilitate and provide:
- Quality education to a greater number of students (current capacity 200).
- A reliable source of education and remove possibility of school closure.
- A safe and secure environment with
clean water and sanitation, as well as facilities for female students to
improve the health and wellbeing of the students.
- Gender equality by keeping the female population above 50% and providing appropriate support and education to reduce dropout rates
