Help for deaf children in Uganda

Rwera Mixed Primary School/Unit for the Deaf - Ntungamo and the St. Bruno Vocational School - Isingiro

With your help, the PowerOneForOne Foundation would like to support two schools in Uganda in converting their electricity supply to solar power because the Rwera Mixed Primary School/Unit for the Deaf - Ntungamo and the St. Bruno Vocational School - Isingiro (vocational school) currently have no or only a very inadequate and too expensive supply of electricity.

DONATE

The goals are in detail:

- Support for hearing-impaired children and adolescents with regard to their school and professional careers

- Ensuring and maintaining drinking water quality

- Construction of simple houses, e.g. classrooms, dormitories, sanitary facilities, residential buildings for teachers, etc.

- Mediation of sponsorships

- Financial support for deaf teacher training students

- Payment of the costs of necessary medical treatment

The installation of solar panels and batteries in both schools can create a framework that allows classes to be held in the evenings - as it is the usual case in Uganda - as well help to have a meaningful recreational activity, since light is indispensable for communicating via sign language.
