Balamuka Primary School located in Kamuli, Buzaaya County on a section of 8 acres of land with just 2 classroom blocks, government-aided and owned by the Church of Uganda holds a special place in the hearts of the local community.
However, over time the school has faced infrastructure challenges that have hindered the learning experience for students and teachers.
Aligned with Rotary International’s 7 areas of focus which include; Peace and conflict prevention/resolution, Disease prevention and treatment, Water and sanitation, Maternal and child health, Basic education and literacy, Economic and community development, and Supporting Environment.
The 7 by 7 project challenge, was put together by District Governor Mike Kennedy Sebalu of D9213 for the Rotary Imagine year 2022-2023 where 7 clubs partner and tackle all the 7 areas in one community.
We are thrilled to partner with Prudential Assurance Uganda, who donated a token of $70,000 equivalent to (Shs261,000,000) to cover the existing infrastructural gap and kick start the refurbishment of classrooms, construction of a nursery section, provision of sanitation facilities, a modern kitchen, a library, and essential educational resources.
“By investing in the infrastructure of Bulamuka Primary School, we aim to enhance the overall learning experience and uplift the spirits of students and teachers,” says Mr. Tetteh Ayitevie, running Chief Executive Officer of Prudential Assurance Uganda Limited.
We are grateful to have Prudential Uganda as our partner for this noble cause and for their generous donation towards our 7 by 7 project to renovate and construct Bulamuka Primary School,” Expressed District 9213 Governor Mike Sebalu.
