The Problem

With this program Engeye Teen Connection is trying to provide access to an education for children in a rural community in Uganda. The two schools this project aims to support are both suffering greatly. One has the highest scoring grades in their district, but can't afford to keep up with the educational needs of their students. The other has never had a student pass and go on to the next level of schooling (secondary/middle school to high school) because of their lack of school supplies. The few supplies they do have are outdated and not relevant any more.

Plan of Action

Engeye Teen Connection, recently launched "Bucks for Books". ETC has developed a website, issued press releases, and presented at local schools to get the word out to as many people as we could and try to get as many local youth involved as we possible. Our goal is to raise $10,000 in order to dramatically change the future of the hundreds of children who currently attend these schools and will attend these schools in the future.
