Program Details
The community requires a new school to meet the growing demand for quality education. Although there is strong community support, insufficient financial resources have delayed construction.
Limited technical capacity in proposal writing and organized fundraising has reduced opportunities to attract grants and donations from government agencies, development organizations, foundations, corporations, and individual philanthropists.
Without a structured fundraising strategy, the construction project may continue to experience significant delays, affecting access to education for present and future learners.
