Together We Can Make a Difference

Building Schools in Africa

In Uganda, although 90% of children attend Primary School, that drops below 25% in Secondary School due to facility shortages. Educational opportunities are scarce, particularly in rural areas like Kibiri. Limited facilities lead to a drastic drop in secondary school attendance, perpetuating the cycle of poverty as career opportunities dwindle without higher education. The call for building schools for Africa becomes clear.

Destiny school - Empowering children through education

Situated amidst the picturesque landscapes between Kampala and Entebbe, Destiny School was founded by Simeon and Jesca Nakamayisa as a sanctuary for orphaned and underprivileged children. What began as a humble initiative to provide shelter and education has blossomed into a transformative force in the community. The recent academic success of students, with eight achieving first grade and eight achieving second grade in school leaving examinations, highlights the positive impact Destiny School has had on these young lives.

Simeon and Jesca Nakamayisa's inspiring journey

Driven by compassion and a commitment to uplift their community, Simeon and Jesca Nakamayisa embarked on a mission to bridge the educational gap for vulnerable children. With support from IRFF UK, they have been able to amplify their impact by investing in school infrastructure and ensuring essential resources reach those most in need. The growth of Destiny School symbolises the boundless potential unlocked when individuals come together to create change.
Our vision

Current needs and future goals at Destiny school

Infrastructure development and financial support
Destiny School's growth and sustainability rely on ongoing investments in infrastructure projects to expand its reach. From enhancing classroom facilities to improving security measures, there is a continual need for funding to create a more conducive learning environment for the children. Additionally, maintaining financial support for essentials like meals, teacher salaries, and educational materials is crucial to ensure that the school can operate smoothly and provide quality education to its students.
The path forward: making a difference together
Recent contributions have facilitated essential bedding for residential pupils and further enhancements to fortify the school's security measures. The journey ahead requires additional funding for completing infrastructure upgrades and furnishing classrooms. Your involvement through child sponsorships or infrastructure support plays a pivotal role in our endeavours.

Impact of Covid-19 on Destiny school

Resilience amidst adversity
At the time the Covid-19 lockdown was over, there were 194 known pupils who joined the school when it opened. However, this number quickly grew further, driven by popular demand and reputation, to the current level of 206 pupils. This increase is a testament to the community's unwavering commitment to education. The increased enrollment reflects the school's vital role in providing stability and hope during uncertain times.
Support from IRFF UK  
During these challenging times, IRFF UK has been instrumental in supporting Destiny School's efforts to weather the impact of the pandemic. From funding bedding for residential students to contributing towards essential infrastructure projects like plastering the security wall, their partnership underscores the collective effort needed to ensure that Destiny School continues its mission of empowering children through education.
