Children fed to date
Students educated
Staff employed
Families impacted
CTJS is expanding technical, cognitive and affective skills for holistic family development within Kiboga, Uganda.
We work with all stakeholders, including farmers, government and the private sector, to create inclusive economic growth and support the development of thriving rural communities.
While we are providing an education our goal is to ensure these children are fed.
It will provide our students the opportunity to focus on educating themselves and not worrying about a grumbling stomach.
Together we create education opportunities for the most disadvantaged young people to earn a practical education and participate in the community.
With a large community surrounding us we look to provide as many children as possible with the education they need:
From Nursery School To The End of
Primary School
300+ Children Fed Everyday on average
8 Full Time Teachers & Growing
12 Classrooms & Expanding
Supporting children's medical needs
Over the past two years we have helped improve access to food and income for 50 households.
Hundreds of people are struggling without a reliable source of food and income to support themselves and their families.
CTJS works to address the barriers to family social and economic independence. Our volunteers make sure people have the skills, opportunities and support needed to live more secure and dignified lives.
We are promoting fairer outcomes for agricultural communities. The rural poor, especially women, produce most of the world’s food. In return, they face high risks, a changing climate and very little reward for their incredibly hard work.
The vast majority of poor rural farming communities are unable to compete equally in global markets. They remain stuck in chronic poverty. We work closely in the community to improve agricultural outcomes.
Kindly donate toward a plantation of 800 banana trees:
Campaign by Christ Towers Junior School Kiboga Ltd, Kiboga, Uganda
DONATEWe are on a mission to plant and grow over 800 banana tree's to support our local community.
Our goal is to make our school self-sustaining. Recent donations for two acres of land is a tremendous milestone for us. With your help we plan to farm this land immediately and we are now reaching out for extra donations to plant the bananas trees before the seasonal rains. We'd love for you to be a part of this story. With an extra $627, we will make the plantation complete. Alongside these 800 banana trees, we will also intercrop with beans and Irish potatoes.
Please feel encouraged to donate to our goal and mission to bless this community in Uganda. No amount is too small. Every donation is helping us us make a bigger impact.
Thank you to everyone who has supported us thus far.
We would like to:
We also need to develop an adequate & safe water supply for our school community. We are studying options to drill a quality water well.
We continue to look for effective ways to provide adequate and nutritious food for our school community.
Become self sufficient through: acquiring plots of land to grow vegetables, fruit and wood to sustain the school.
We will start planting our banana plantation in August.
Maintain a small herd of cattle (requires several
more acres).
We provide small scale family economic project developments. Offering 50-100 agro-micro-credits/herbicides for family income growth.
Empower individuals, households and communities through training and supporting organized collectives that increase bargaining power.
Foster a strong and growing Christian body of young people in our community.
We are excited to report, the first school building is underway for Christ Tower Junior School. Funded by the generous donations through Classrooms for Africa.
Christ Towers Junior School, Kiboga, aims to offer access to Kindergarten and primary schooling to children from low income families! The idea is that, families keep in poverty because they lack proper preparation of their children for the future trade that lies a head of each child.
Dear Friends,
Richard (Lyakota) and Sylvia (Nantongo) Kent are the Executive and Co-Directors of Christ Towers Junior School.
Their passion is to provide quality education to rural kids, to love them and to introduce them to Jesus Christ. This allows the children to escape a life of poverty, to grow up confidently and prepare for eternity.
Richard guides all aspects of teaching, early child learning and lesson planning. Sylvia is mother/matron to all the children and enjoys growing a variety of food for their community, helping with cooking and meeting the practical needs of her “other children”.Both have been trained as “Village Health Workers”, which is based on the book “Where There Is No Doctor”, to give effective medical care to their school community. Richard and Sylvia have 8 children.
