Two 3-Unit Classroom Blocks for 4,200 Sch children

We are appreciative and articulate our truthful admiration to our donors for continuously putting enthusiasm and anticipate to this susceptible school going children of our rural communities with the donations received so far from GlobalGiving. This has given us the prospect to institute something although far from the targeted budget. Thanks to the funds raised so far through your bigheartedness, RUPFA International is progressively putting excitement from the community with little we are doing through the block cutting.

So far the project has already started with 5 key activities below

Cutting of Blocks: We have been able to cut 1,843 blocks so far and we hope to do more as and when we get more funds coming. Meaning 897 more blocks have come to add to the previous 956 achieved small percentage and more work ahead to be done.

Parking of Blocks

So far we have managed to package over 1,800 blocks. This has been done by some artisans we have hired temporally.

We are very much grateful to all those who contributed. We are overconfident of you for your commitments and passionate to see to it that this project becomes a reality. We could not have come this far without your support. We do appreciate it so much and wish you well.

APPEAL

We will continue to appeal to every individual, business communities and other organizations as usual to support by donating to this project. This is seriously going to address insecurity issues along our borders, migration and negative impact of climate change when these children get access to education under good environment. We also appeal to previous donors to continue to support and also help in raising funds towards this project to put smiles on the faces of these underprivileged children.

We love you all and appreciate you as well.
