Patron Capital AGB School Repair Project

Updated: Jan 6, 2022

This school is in Cufar village and was extremely run down. It has two buildings, one with four classrooms and one with three, only three of the classrooms in the larger building were useable and the smaller building could not be used at all.


In the rainy season even the useable classes have to close as the roof is in such a state of disrepair. When the school closes the older children will have to walk a 14km round trip to another village each day in order that they can continue to study. Those too young to make this walk will stop studying completely which can be very detrimental to their learning.


Patron Capital funded this project with AGB to completely refurbish the classrooms so that many more children can learn all year round. Thank you very much Patron Capital!
