We recently had the honor of hosting a truly special visitor, Ms. Courtney from KitsFoundation, and her time with us was nothing short of meaningful.

Amidst dwindling funds in the donor world, her visit reminded us that genuine partnership, compassion, and solidarity still exist, and they matter more than ever.

During her stay, Courtney immersed herself fully in our community:

Visited the Office of the Prime Minister in Kiryandongo Refugee Settlement.

Engaged with the UNHCR office and key settlement leaders, And,

Toured Ubuntu Model Primary School and Bidong Primary School.

Through these interactions, she gained a firsthand understanding of the resilience and challenges refugees, and their partners face every single day.

A Celebration of Culture at Ubuntu Model Primary School, she was welcomed by our Music, Dance, and Drama Club. Our children proudly showcased dances and songs from their rich and diverse cultures, Sudanese, South Sudanese (Acholi, Nuer, Pojulu & Kakwa), and Congolese traditions. The joy and unity in their performances were unforgettable.

Impactful Giving Her visit was also about giving. Courtney generously donated scholastic materials, uniforms, and supplies. These resources directly impact the daily lives of our learners and strengthen their environment.

An Open Call As we celebrate this partnership, we extend an open call to other donors and friends: Join us. Support our education and livelihoods programs.

We strongly believe that strengthening livelihoods is the most sustainable way to protect and grow our education program. When families are economically empowered, children stay in school, and communities flourish.

Thank you, Courtney and Kits Foundation, for standing with us.
