With 350 primary school students, we need a single location on the campus where everyone can gather at one time. This assembly hall is a place where the students can gather, but so also will the community be able to use it. This is a physically, emotionally, and spiritually safe gathering place where students and the community will be discipled and trained.

We regularly invest in our staff to better equip them to disciple and teach the students at The Amazima Schools. This project will fund staff training for the year 2023 to ensure students get the best possible experience in our programs.

In 2023, we will have our first class start their Upper Secondary studies at the Amazima Secondary School. This project will cover repairs and updating furniture in dorms for these older students as they progress in their education.

The students at our primary school love special events like Easter, Graduation, and Sports Days! This project will fund these events in 2023 to make them special for our students and their attending family members.

In 2022, Amazima had 6 different sports teams compete at the National level. These competitions are a great way for our student athletes to be exposed to some of the best competition in the country, and a great opportunity for them to witness to other students through the way they play and behave. This project will help cover the expenses of travel and lodging for our sports teams as they compete at the highest level.

Keeping accurate records of attendance, grades, and discipline is essential for any school. At the Amazima Secondary School, we use a program called PowerSchool to track all student records. This allows administration, teacher, students, and families to stay connected to each student’s progress. This project covers the yearly cost of PowerSchool at our secondary school.

Much of the food preparation on our two campuses is performed with the assistance of firewood in generating the heat we need to cook. Three meals a day, feeding over 700 students requires a lot of wood! In 2023 we will begin using propane gas for some of our cooking, but for now, firewood is essential.

Amazima owns three main buses that bring students to and from school from the surrounding community. These buses are also responsible for transporting students and staff to different off-campus events like field trips, sports games, and appointments. This project covers the cost of fuel for these essential buses.

We built our classrooms, homes, and other facilities with the expectation they will last 50+ years. To keep them looking new and in outstanding condition, we continually need to perform maintenance. Your gift will provide the funding we need to complete the building maintenance on both of our campuses for an entire year.

Traveling the roads to and around Jinja can be a bone-jolting experience. If the roads are hard on your body, just imagine the impact they have on our fleet of buses, vans, cars, and motorcycles. Maintenance (and repair!) are key. Your gift will fund vehicle maintenance for our school vehicles for an entire year.

With the number of students on the rise we are in need of additional, adjacent land for the primary school campus, this will enable us to grow as necessary in the future.

The roundabout of The Amazima Secondary School is a focal point of our campus. The students walk past it everyday to get to the kitchen, and they enjoy studying under the shade of the fig tree planted in the center. Due to the construction on campus and heavy rains, our drainage system within the roundabout needs updating. This will allow us to redirect the water away from the roadway and keep the center green space free from flooding.

Dorm Collection and recycling of rainwater is so important in Uganda. This would allow us to have a rainwater collection system for all 28 dorms on our Secondary School Campus enabling us to reuse rainwater for all of our watering needs during the dry seasons.
