St. Mary’s Junior School

Uganda

In keeping with its mission to promote educational development and provide educational resources to African children, Anike Foundation partnered with a Ugandan NGO, Training Women in Rural Uganda (TORUWU), to purchase and deliver scholastic supplies to a local school. Anike Foundation provided funds to provide pens, pencils, exercise books, geometry sets, atlases, drawing sheets, markers and other school supplies to 46 students, nearly half of St. Mary’s Junior School’s total enrollment. Provision of day-to-day school supplies assists in creating continuity in the classroom for students grappling with change and flux. Anike Foundation plans to take part in other efforts benefitting rural Ugandan schools through TORUWU.
