Goal

Because of you, and your support, the children are at school and happy

Supporting the boy child is as important as supporting the girl child. Please read some of the stories from the boys

Rescued from deep neglect, Victor was rescued very sick and malnourished. His life has been full of incredible sadness and survival, not what a little boy should deal with. He got several treatments and within a few days, he responded to the medication, nutritious food, and sweet love from one of our volunteers. He is now healthy and has a future that is filled with hope.  

Festus is very cheeky, smart, inquisitive, and has a smile that can’t be missed! He has just joined primary school. He walks five miles daily to and from school and is always crying of painful legs. When he is well with no pain, he does a lot of talking and is so cheerful. Letting Sam stay in a dormitory will help him have a very bright future.

John’s mother died in childbirth and instantly him became an orphan. With no family and a sure death sentence without someone to step in and care for this precious life he wouldn’t be alive today. Angela a local women’s leader took him in and cared for him like him own. Angela spent three years teaching John how to read and write since she stays 15 miles away from school. Starting John at San Martino Primary school in Primary three, John received the highest marks in him class placing him in very good ranking. He has a very sweet spirit, an amazing memory, the voice of an angel, and can break it down on the dance floor with the best of them! Though he is a gift to the school, he arrives at school very late and leaves school early to start walking home. Daily, John spends four hours walking to and from school and always loses three lessons while walking to and from school.

 


"92% of Ugandan children do not eat breakfast at home before reporting to school while 70% of the children do not eat at least one meal at school"

Girls’ enrolment in schools IS lower than that of boys while girl’s school drop-out rate is higher. Because of your support, Primary six pupils have a class room. That is where they areOnly 20% of the pupils in upper primary are girls. Of the 20% girls that cross to upper primary, only 10% cross over to secondary level with only 2% of these girls completing senior four. 60% of the girls drop out of school because of poverty characterised by lack of food, sanitary pads, school fees and scholastic materials. 98% of the girls that fall out of school get married in the next one year.

 Because of you, San Martino Primary School was constructed. This is an over view of San Martino Primary School

For the girls that go to school, they miss school for at least four days a month and 48 days a year because of lack of sanitary pads to use during menstruation. Issues about menstruation are not talked about due to embarrassment, lack of understanding and the low priority of such problems in the face of starvation, violence, death, illiteracy and the many struggles of daily life. Because of your support, all these 380 children are at school at San Martino Primary SchoolThese women are living in absolute poverty and entrenched in poverty.

This was no different from what Josephine Nakakande faced.

Josephine’s scholastic materials experience at school

Why giving the  children scholastic materials is important

I Used to write three subjects in one 32 paged book. Mathematics at the beginning of the book, Science in the middle and English at the end. At home, a pencil was cut into two or three pieces so that each one of us can get and use a piece.Some of the children with their books. But others do not have and request for your support to get books It’s only when I presented home an empty pen or a full book that I would get a new pen or book. Whenever I lost a book or pen, I would be beaten at home and at school. It is not a surprise to me that one Kasundara a child at San Martino Primary School spent five days without coming to school, when he was told to go back home and bring a pencil. It took his mother five days to get money to buy a pencil. Mark with his booksBy the way, I was so lucky to have the books. Over half of the children didn’t have books, pens and pencils at all.

How I lost the books and pens. I never had a school bag. I used to carry my books in a polythene bag, which is the same way children at San Martino Primary school are carrying their books. Whenever it got torn, I would lose something and couldn’t easily find it since I used to walk three miles to and from school.

Children celebrating receiving scholastic materials

Why feeding children at school is very important

Hunger bites hard at school. I faced severe hunger at school and its one of the things I will never forget. This was the worst. Imagine, I used to walk three miles to school and back home, when I have not had breakfast, lunch or anything the whole day. Because of your support, children at San Martino Primary School can have a meal for lunchThis forced me and my friends to eat mangoes, guavas and sugar cane in the evening along the way as we walked back home. The owners would chase us because they needed to sale them to get food. Meal time is always a happy momentOver 80% of the children eat people’s fruits and sugar cane along the way as they go back home from school. No wonder some children steal other children’s food because of extreme hunger.

One time, I was caught eating peoples mangoes along the way and I was beaten and reported to my parents. Since then, my parents started packing the little food they could get in a basket. Children at San Martino walking with their food from the kitchen where its servedUnfortunately, the food could sometimes get spoilt before I ate it or got stolen.

I remember one bad incidence one day when we went to look for fruits and sugarcanes to eat. On that day, we went to the bush and in the process of looking for fruits, one of my classmate was bitten by a snake and died. This shocked me so much that I didn’t run back to school. I ran back home.  As I ran back home, i lost all the books, pens and pencils. I was put on pressure both from home and at school to produce the books, pens and pencils. To escape the wrath, I always hid in the toilet. I narrowly survived dropping out of school.

Dormitories needed at San Martino Primary School

Why constructing a dormitory for girls is important.

I used to walk a distance of three miles without breakfast, break tea or lunch. Some of the children at San Martino walk ten miles to come to school. I was a day scholar because my father could not pay for the boarding section. I used to walk three miles to come to school. My mother packed for me the little food she could in a basket. The food was always cold and sometimes could get spoilt during the day before we ate it. The food used not to be enough, sometimes it was not there and sometimes it was stolen by children. In secondary school, because I was a day scholar, some teachers taught at night and I missed those lessons and testsJosephine Nakakande (PhD) with some of the San Martino Primary School children

When I joined high school, since the school was in another district, I could not be a day scholar. I started staying at school. This made me very happy as I was saved from walking long distance from home. I also started eating from school and missed no lesson taught at night. My performance at school tremendously improved and my parents appreciated staying at school.

Two dormitories are urgently needed by December 31st 2022
