Paid school fees for 7 needy students with the donated 75SBDs.

Arrived at the school and met up with the needy students. The school i staged at is called "New Hope schools." This school is located in a region of Bugeywa in Kamuli district one of a remote village found in Eastern Uganda. This is a local private school that is still in its infancy. It has a variety of students mostly from poor families.

The assistant head teacher helped me to gather up a list of orphans and there those that had parents but could not as well manage paying the school fees for them.

The following is a snapshot with the list of students presented to me. These were a list of 25 students but I had to only hand pick 7students as per the budget.

Below are the names of the students who can't afford the school fees. They are 25 of them. The school just spares them and just allows them to study for free but its a set back and a burden to it because at the end of the month it struggles in paying the salaries of the staff.

I was requested to address this group of students where i introduced my self and informed them about the exciting news concerning their fees payment that I had come with.

I counselled the students, speaking to them about the values of Education and encouraged them to keep in school and work hard for their future through the education opportunity they have at hand. I expressed my intentions to them concerning the support from Korea for their education.

The reason as to why I had to advise these about the values of education is because many children in that area don't study and many girls are forced into marriage when they are still young.

These students are in school despite of the challenge of school fees payment they are normally faced with. With these few ones the future for this region and Uganda as a whole is a bright one. It was a very long journey to get to this place and to reach these particular people who are in need of help.

The teachers and the entire staff members were as well very excited for the support to their students. They gave me a very warm welcoming. I took a photo with them. They are amazing people who are very patient, caring and strong.

I was time bad I didn't manage to go visit the different guardians of the needy students. I had to board back to Kampala to catch up with other programms. But generally the mission was accomplished, I left smiles on the faces of many and hope flooded their hearts courtesy of this surprising support.

The school generally needs some support as the school also helps some great number of needy students to study for free and because of this act of kindness it faces a lot of financial challenges yet it has the staff to pay up at the end of every month.
These are the school buildings.

@ukk with your steempayco team..thank you so much for the support to these students. 7 students' school fees have been paid with the 70SBDs. I submit to you by saying that this donation has made a great impact in the lives of some unfortunate Ugandans today. I will as well be heading to one of the hospitals around to spend the remaining 5SBDs in helping some patients.
