Projects we are focusing on
Education
Founded in 1998, the Shimbwe Secondary School improved access to education for the people of its ward in a significant way. Until then, there had been no secondary school in the area.
Water
60% coverage already achieved through building multiple intakes, water tanks and pressure releasing points. Already this new access has seen an improvement in quality of life as well as fewer cases of dangerous parasitic infestation.
