Summary
For quite a long time, ICT studies and/or services have remained a nightmare to students and the entire population on the Golden Stars Community Daycare Center and Nursery School in Bugongi ward, Kabale Municipality. Most schools on the islands continue to struggle to teach ICT and related studies due to a lack of access to power, computers, and internet connection. It is our intention, therefore, to partly address the challenges by equipping the school with a solar power system, desktop computers, and a printer. The project will have a direct impact on not only the students and staff, but the entire Bwama island community who will access computer-related services such as printing, scanning, and photocopying at the school; thereby directly impacting the entire island and surrounding islands’ population.
Impact
This project aimed to positively impact 200 students, 12 teachers, and members of the local community by providing access to appropriate support tools.
