Uganda Baati Limited (UBL) through Safal Foundation a Corporate Social Initiative arm of the Safal group in partnership with Rotary Club of Kololo-Kampala have handed over an ultra-modern infrastructure to Nyamifura Primary School committee.
Situated in Kagorogoro village, Kabwooma parish, Nyakajembe Sub County in Rukungiri District, Nyamifura Primary School caters to 415 students from surrounding villages.
The school has been facing a challenge of inadequate infrastructure and poor state of the available structures with only three buildings in place for seven classrooms.
Working in close collaboration with the Rotary Club of Kololo - Kampala, Uganda Baati Limited undertook the complete roofing of the school, reigniting hope among the students and instilling a sense of resilience.
By employing local villagers for the construction, the project provided employment opportunities and fostered a strong sense of community involvement.
"Education is one of the key focus areas in our social initiatives, and we are delighted and filled with pride to have made our contribution towards the rebuilding of Nyamifura Primary School. We firmly believe that every child deserves access to education and a safe environment to study. Through this initiative, we are not only improving the lives of the students but also creating a safe and nurturing learning environment, paving the way for a better tomorrow," said George Arodi, the Uganda Baati CEO.
