Rukungiri Orphan Partnership Pen Pals
This year, we have been fundraising for the Rukungiri Orphan Partnership. The charity is a Christian organisation set up by Alice and John Tumusiime. The charity provides support for children in the Rukungiri district of southern Uganda. These children are a lot less fortunate then we are.
Alice and John founded Rukungiri Modern Primary School so that these children can get an education, which in turn will help them to improve their opportunities for the future. During 2019, we took part in a number of charity efforts. This included, non-uniform days, cake sales, ipad sessions and easter art competitions.
All classes, took part in extra fundraising during Lent. Lent is a special time as it allows Christians to remember Jesus's fasting in the desert. It is a time of doing more and a test of self-discipline.
In February, we posted cards and messages to the Primary School in Uganda and we can't wait for their responses!
