As part of the Covid-19 Relief fund - a generous donation from Endev and GIZ - five more Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA) primary schools have been now added to Simoshi’s Project Activity “Institutional Improved Cook Stoves for Schools and Institutions in Uganda”. All five schools are now enjoying cooking their daily student and staff meals with the institutional improved cook stoves (IICS) they had received completely for free as they slowly recover from the past full year school closure.
The number of schools so far that have enjoyed from such grant are Katwe Primary School, Kyambogo Primary School, St. Jude Primary School, Mackay Memorial Primary School, Muslim Girls Primary School, previously joined by Munyonyo Primary School that was already included last month, totaling six school that are successfully now reducing their firewood consumption by at least half.
The list is not stopping here, we are only half way through, as we are busy with the manufacturer Ugastove supervising the fabrication of more IICS for a further seven KCCA schools that will be receiving their donation during the months of April and May.
