10 November, 2025: Orchard Junior School in Dibden Purlieu, Hampshire has done it again. Long time fundraisers for Kisoboka's work in Uganda, this year the children in Year 5 raised £860.60, making an invaluable contribution to providing safe sanitation for Ugandan children.

We would like to thank each and every child in Year 5 for their donations. 💦💪🫶

Using money raised by Orchard Junior School along with further donations, Kisoboka is looking to fund the building of toilets at Notre Dame Secondary School in the Masaka area which has only 2 toilets for over 800 pupils.

Starting mid January 2025, Kisoboka will be holding six online training sessions providing valuable insight on how to build a successful business within a rural economy in Uganda. The aim is to put education and know-how into the local community, focused on the Masaka area, and through the creation of local sustainable businesses, alleviate poverty.

This is a “training the trainer” scheme where local teachers are given the training and each of these then spread the knowledge and in turn train those wishing to start-up their own business. This programme is in collaboration with Masaka District Landcare Chapter (MADLACC) who are providing day to day support to students on the ground.

The training will be given weekly, over the six weeks. Topics covered will include:

* What is your business idea and how will it be delivered?
* Who are your customers and how will you attract them to your offering?
* How is your offering different from what’s already available
* How to plan the resources required, managing cash flow and the need for record keeping
* Developing an action plan and then ready to start the business venture

Training starts on Saturday 11th January 2025 at 8am UK time and then every Saturday at the same time for the next 6 weeks. Course work will be sent prior to each session and printed out ready for when the session starts.

Mentoring support is provided by a local businessman who is on hand to answer questions that arise from each session and further down the line once a business has started.

The children here at Happy Hours Primary School in the Masaka area of Uganda are excited to soon have latrine facilities at their school. Currently there are none for the 620 pupils that come to school every day. 👩‍👩‍👧‍👧👩‍🎓

MADLACC are co-ordinating the build, thanks to funding from Kisoboka. So far a 25 foot hole has been dug, the latrine block walls are almost up and soon the roof will be on. Then the children will have access to safe sanitation.

Help us build more latrine facilities for rural schools like Happy Hours Primary. If you're a school, community or business that would like to raise money we can put towards building more sanitary facilities, we'd love to hear from you.
