Profile
I have attended Peace Nursery and Primary School from the time I was old enough to go to school. Five years ago my mother died and my father became ill. Peace Nursery and Primary School offered to let me stay in the Girl’s Dormitory and cover my school expenses.
 
My best friend is Rita, another girl who lives at the school.
 
I am the top student in my class. My favorite subject is math. I would like to finish my education and become a teacher. I would appreciate your help in making my dreams come true.
 
Note: Peace Nursery and Primary School is a private school serving orphans and other children unable to afford the costs of attending public schools. As such, it receives no funding from public sources. Located in a suburb of Uganda’s capital city Kampala, the school is in a highly urban setting and must pay for water and sanitation service as well as teacher salaries and facilities. School Supplies include a school uniform, other clothing (underwear and after school clothing), hygiene items (soap, toothpaste, laundry soap, haircuts, etc) medical care, transportation, and entertainment (sports equipment, musical instruments). Educational materials include text books, light for studying at night, pencils, paper, etc. Room and board includes bedding, three meals a day seven days a week, and 24/7 adult supervision.
