FUTURE PLAN

Building pre and primary school

In 2021 the Lift Them Up Foundation registered and the children’s day care center opened, its core mission is to help poor children in their academic endeavors, emotional development, physical well-being through full time daycare for kids from 2-6years old. At the moment we care for 52 children in our day care center while giving them early childhood education. We have rent a place with only 2 small classes of which the need is more than our capacity.

Why do we want to build a school?

We are committed in promoting the education sector in the Nasholi village at Kikatiti to reach a large number of poor children.

We want to build a school for the children from kindergarten 1, 2, 3 until primary 7 school with full day care. The new school will have space for 370 children whereby we hope to give vulnerable children aged 2-13 years old, the possibility to have a sustainable and good school education especially when their parents cannot afford for the school costs.

Also, the school will give the children the opportunity to learn organic garden to maintain soil fertility and ecological balance thereby minimizing pollution and wastage, we are determined to be more involved in food and vegetable production.
