Sorry it's been quiet on here for a while. We have just sent out a newsletter with some exciting updates...the microloan initiative is helping to retain teachers at KAASO 🎉 Read all about it here 👉https://t.co/E1RgTmWjmL

While we were at KAASO, we talked with Dominic and Rose about how to allocate our funds when there are so many competing priorities. Something that came higher than everything else was safety, so we are delighted to have helped to provide new fire extinguishers at the school.

@RobHavard1 So good to have you at KAASO! Thank you for visiting 🙏

Wow. KAASO, An orphanage/school and farm in Uganda run by the incomparable Dominic and Rose Mukwaya. Over 700 children learn to read and write here, while building community with the teachers and local people involved in the enterprises. We can learn so much from this. Amazing.

Chairs galore! Last year, Unity is Strength supported St Paul KAASO to buy chairs that they could hire out at community events to generate some additional income for the school. This has been very successful and Dominic was keen to expand - so were happy to fund a few more! 🪑🪑

We recently sent funds to St Paul KAASO for a number of projects and these items were bought almost immediately! Staff utenstils including metal saucepans, plates, teapots, cutlery and more 🍴 We were delighted to receive this video and lots of lovely photos 🙏 #uganda #school

It's hard to believe KAASO started with just 12 students in 1999...there are now 707 students and 57 staff members! It is incredible to see how this school and community project have grown over the years 💚
