Story
5 days. 332 miles. 1Goal - to transform lives in Northern Uganda through the power of education.
38 cyclists including myself are raising money for Keframa School Build.
All donations are going directly to the charity as I am covering my personal costs by myself (like all other participants). Remember to choose Gift Aid if you are a UK taxpayer to enable an extra 25% to be added onto your donation - for free!
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
