Background:
A group of Christian professionals in Uganda saw the need for a Christian Centre, including a school in Mutukula a the border of Uganda and Tanzania. This is a high need area with no Christian schools at all. There are many street or parentless children sleeping in verandas and a high amount of refugees from Tanzania and Rwanda. What school are in the area are overcrowded and no qualified teachers.
The school began in 2015 with the goal to build a 12 classroom school for Nursery through Primary 3 including two special needs classes. There are 70 students currently in the school.
