Pupil to Pupil Aid Initiative

This initiative is run by the children at the school and is directed at helping the needy/disadvantaged children in their midst. The initiative benefits orphans, the needy with special talents but can’t afford scholastic requirements like books, uniforms, shoes etc. The initiative is currently benefiting 25 such children. 

Children contribute 100 Uganda shillings every month towards a pool from which items needed for the needy are bought. They also contribute items like books pencil/pens, socks, a few go a long way to give in their used shoes and uniforms to support their fellows. At the end of the month, children decide on which pupils among the needy are to receive which items. However, if uniforms or shoes are bought, a child receives one pair in a year. With support, the scheme would reach all the 85 children identified as badly in needy, so far. It’s because of lack of support that the children can only assist 25 currently.
