Happy Teachers’ Day.
To all teachers who light the path of learning even in the hardest of situations, thank you for shaping futures with hope and courage.
This morning we joined @corsuhospital and partners for the CoRSUWalk, walking with purpose to bring hope, restore confidence and open doors of opportunity for children living with disabilities.
Investing in teachers means investing in the future.
Through the Bright Project, we’ve trained teachers in Kyangwali Refugee Settlement in financial literacy, empowering them to secure their future and inspire their students.

🌿 With support from @Opetilmanrajoja (Teachers Without Borders, Finland), we’ve trained over 20 teachers in Kyangwali Refugee Settlement in climate education.
They are now championing climate action in their schools, helping learners understand climate issues & take meaningful action.
This is part of the #BRIGHTProject, a regional initiative empowering teachers across Africa.

Be a reflection of what you'd like to receive. If you want love, give love. If you want truth, be truthful. If you want respect, give respect. What you give out will always return. - #KristenButler#quote
