Prudential Uganda, a leading life and health insurance provider, has donated $70,000 COVID Recovery Funds to support the renovation, refurbishment, and construction project at Bulamuka Primary School in Kamuli District.
The funds will be allocated to seven Rotary Clubs in Uganda that are actively participating in this community development initiative.
The move comes after the COVID-19 pandemic which posed unprecedented challenges globally, affecting various sectors, including education. Prudential Uganda has stepped forward to contribute to the revitalisation of Bulamuka Primary School due to it’s special significance in the hearts of the local community, serving as a beacon of hope for countless children in the Kamuli District.
The school had earlier faced infrastructure challenges that hindered the learning experience for students and teachers alike.
Through this partnership with the seven Rotary Clubs, Prudential Uganda aims to empower the community by providing a safe and conducive learning environment. The renovation and construction project will address key infrastructure gaps, ensuring that the students of Bulamuka Primary School receive the education they deserve.
“We firmly believe that every child deserves access to quality education, regardless of their circumstances. As part of our commitment to community development, Prudential Uganda is proud to support the renovation project at Bulamuka Primary School,” said Tetteh Ayitevie, CEO Prudential Uganda. “We are honoured to collaborate with the Rotary Clubs in Uganda, who share our vision of creating a brighter future for the next generation,” he added.
The $70,000 donation represents Prudential Uganda’s dedication to making a sustainable impact on the communities it serves. By investing in the refurbishment and construction of Bulamuka Primary School, the company aims to create a lasting positive change and contribute to the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
Prudential Uganda’s donation will directly contribute to the renovation and refurbishment of classrooms, construction of new facilities, and the provision of necessary educational resources and materials. By investing in the infrastructure of Bulamuka Primary School, Prudential Uganda aims to enhance the overall learning experience and uplift the spirits of the students and teachers.
Prudential Uganda’s earlier intervation
Prudential Uganda has in the most recent past donated COVID relief and recovery funds to Strong Minds Uganda to support young ladies and youth access mental health support during the pandemic, food relief primary school teachers in eastern Uganda that were affected by the lockdown measures and people in the urban slums of Kampala and Mbarara.
This Covid recovery fund has been provided by Prudential Uganda with support from the Prudence Foundation, the community investment arm of Prudential plc in Asia and Africa, and Chairman’s Challenge, Prudential’s flagship international volunteering programme, that brings together people from across the Group to help their communities.
