We wouldn’t be celebrating this milestone birthday without the generosity of donors like you who have made every bit of progress possible.
Over the last 12 months, we have welcomed 7 new children into the Majengo family, implemented our Exit Strategy Program which helps our 18-year-old children reintegrate into their communities, and completed 5 projects from our wish list. This wouldn’t have been possible without you!
Majengo is made up of:
-3 children in post-secondary school
-21 children in secondary school
-70 children in primary school with 17 graduating in 2018
-55 children enrolled in Majengo’s Community Development Projects
“One day, when I have lots of money, I will give it to someone else who needs it more than I do”
– Bushoke, 12
We have successfully implemented several projects at Majengo this year, including:
- A New Cow, Goat, Duck & Chicken House: to keep our animals safe and fed, and to help teach the children farming and animal care.
- New Wash Sinks for Clothes & Dishes: to allow the use of running water and to eliminate stagnant water with improved drainage.
- A New Plumbing System: to separate clean and dirty water, and ensure the children have consistent access to clean water.
- A New House: to comfortably house 32 children, open up space in other houses, and eventually allow us to welcome more children into Majengo.
- A New Library: to provide a space for reading and homework, and encourage reading for fun.
