CONSTRUCTION OF REHOBOTH COMMUNITY SCHOOLS

Kikyusa is a deprived rural area of eastern Uganda. Some 80% of its population (total around 150,000) are subsistence farmers who live beneath the poverty line. This thus has affected the education of our next generation. Even though there are government school, but even the little expenses required from the parents cannot be catered for. To some who can manage to send their children to school, some do not finish- they dropout!

This thus compelled our Heavenly Mission Church and Ntulume Foundation under the leadership of Pastor Wilfred Mukisa Ntulume to start up Rehoboth Community Schools with an aim of providing free education to these impoverished children in the community from Primary to Vocational level. The Foundation is thus seeking for support of the construction of the schools. Besides the Primary and Secondary schools, we identified that there is a need to address School Drop-Outs, and Unemployed Youths living within the villages of Kikyusa – Luwero District, with a Vocational Training Scheme hence an establishment of a vocational institute.

Objectives of the Project

-To provide free education to the needy from primary to tertiary level
-To majorly provide vocational training to unemployed youths and recent school-dropouts to enhance employ-ability and provide a skilled foundation to build a career –therefore reducing levels of unemployment in those aged 21-30
-To empower young people to believe in their dreams and to enable the acquisition of income (through formal and informal job prospects) so that they can support their household and families
-Foster a change in community attitudes whereby everybody is given the opportunity to succeed

Proposed Vocational Training Courses

The following courses have been proposed and would be targeted at recent school drop-outs and youths –except for Computer Literacy which could also be attended by professionals (public servants)

-Tailoring
-Hair Dressing and Beauty
-Catering
-Computer Literacy
-Carpentry and Joinery
-Brick laying and Construction
-Plumbing
-Electrical Wiring and Fittings

Expected Outcomes of the Programme

-Beneficiaries will become self-reliant and strongly resilient in addressing their challenges through newly acquired skills and learning.
-Beneficiaries will be able to use the acquired skills to enhance their careers and employment prospects.
-Beneficiaries will be able to use course completion certifications to add value to their curriculum vitae and enable wider career opportunities.
