Facilities Update

This past month we updated our MD Standard School facilities by resurfacing our 4 classrooms with murram (reddish clay-like material) to reduce the dusty floors. We also began the construction of our two additional classrooms for primary five and primary six students. These facility upgrades were directives given to the school by the officials of the Ugandan Ministry of Education and Sports at the district level. Additional improvements include completing the classrooms, purchasing additional desks, building a girls bathroom, and reconstructing the school fence. Check out the pictures below to see our progress & donate HERE to be a part of improving MD Standard School for our students.

Fundraising Goals:

50 Desks = $800

School Fence = $150

Classroom Completion = $200

Additional Upgrades = $100

MD Standard School // Term ONE

Thanks to generous donations towards The Mawanda Project, we built 2 new classrooms, an office, purchased 10 desks, 2 new black boards, and provided school supplies for our students and teachers at MD Standard School. With the 1st quarter of the year that started February 22nd and each new quarter, we're working towards creating a sustainable and improved school system to better educate the children in Iganga, Uganda. Thanks for your continued support!
