QUALITY EDUCATION
Quality Education Makes A Difference
SCHOOL SCHOLARSHIP
We believe that education is not only a human right, but also a crucial factor in improving health, strengthening social responsibility and environmental protection. Access to education is THE single most effective way to disrupt the cycle of need. Yet, for so many of the families we meet, school fees, uniforms, books & other school requirements are unaffordable. Despite having many government-funded schools, education is not free for anyone here in Uganda.
Sponsoring children does work. It provides a young person with an opportunity to learn and our programme aims to increase access to school education for children. Through child sponsorship, children can have a future.
Working alongside education leaders, For Another Human now supports 21 beautiful children through school, most of them living in Gulu - some living in the surrounding rural areas.
Our Little Human’s education programme assists with providing children’s clothes/uniform and shoes, books, school meals and other personal or educational supplies to help support families, children and schools. Our vision for these children is for them to stay enrolled and COMPLETE school, be able to read and write according to their age and to provide them with the best education available.
We're careful when dealing with requests for education sponsorship. The founders and the trustees always act honestly, and reasonably, with integrity and rationality.
SCHOOL LUNCH CLUB
The School Lunch Program commenced in 2022. After seeing how many children were not eating throughout the school day, we fundraised and implemented this much needed program, catering for the needs of our scholarship kids by providing a nutritious meal to sustain them throughout the school day.
Most of these kids wake at 5am to walk to school, which starts at 7am and finishes at 5pm. Many children do this day in and day out, not eating until dinner time late in the evening. That’s where the School Lunch Club comes in.
It is paramount that these children receive nourishment to stay alert and derive the utmost benefit from their education. A typical meal includes a large helping of rice, beans, and a vegetable (typically avocado, pumpkin or greens). We extend our heartfelt gratitude for the invaluable support that has enabled us to maintain this vital program. In just one year, FAH provided around 3000 school lunches to 21 children (2023)!
Take a seat at the table.
We invite you to join us to support the School Lunch Club. For just £10 a month, you can provide a healthy lunch for a student who might otherwise go hungry.
BOOK CLUB
Embracing unconventional ideas is something we relish, blue sky thinking one day led us to the idea of a mobile library to enhance literacy. With over 100 kids and 1 teacher per class, it’s not surprising that some kids can fall behind in their reading skills. Our book club is a weekly, Saturday morning gathering to encourage reading through:
Organised Storytelling Sessions allow guests, or the children, to read aloud to engage club attendees uniquely. This helps to foster a love of books and improve listening skills.
Reading Buddies pair younger and older children and having them read together.
Writing Workshops encourage children to write their own stories, both fiction and non-fiction as a wonderful creative outlet.
Our Saturday morning gatherings have flourished into a vibrant club. We now have a collection of over 100 storybooks, phonics materials, and local reading materials. The joy of our meetings lies in sharing breakfast, indulging in a couple of hours of immersive reading, uniting in song, and enjoying playful activities together.
One of our most recent book additions is called “If the World Was Made of Chocolate Sprinkles” and it was written by our very own Janine Robinson! Proceeds from book sales support the work of the Robinsons in Uganda.
