Another important part of the emergency aid was the funding of school fees for three months, including four months of salaries for the teachers and administrative staff. Without this important support, it would not have been possible to uphold the systems required to run the school and pay for the upkeep of staff.

The number of children attending the school has risen sharply in recent years, posing significant practical challenges, especially when it comes to running the school. For example, the classrooms were too small, especially given the need to make provisions for Covid-19.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, in 2021 the PATRIZIA Foundation joined forces with Schulwerk, the education association run by the Diocese of Masaka, and ADEPT. Together, the three organisations helped the school renovate nine existing classrooms, dormitories and adjacent sanitary facilities. A fence was also erected around the school grounds to protect facilities. In addition, work has now started on the construction of two further classrooms. There are also plans to renovate toilet facilities and repair or restore the school kitchen. It will also be important to install two water filtration systems for drinking water. All of these measures are scheduled for completion by mid-2022.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_column_2_5 et_pb_column et_pb_column_10  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et-last-child et_block_column\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_image et_pb_image_1\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap \"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"510\" src=\"https:\/\/www.patrizia.foundation\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG-20220216-WA0004-rotated.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"Buyamba, Uganda\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.patrizia.foundation\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG-20220216-WA0004-rotated.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.patrizia.foundation\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG-20220216-WA0004-980x463.jpg 980w, https:\/\/www.patrizia.foundation\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG-20220216-WA0004-480x227.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1080px, 100vw\" class=\"wp-image-244954\" \/><\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_image et_pb_image_2\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap \"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1040\" height=\"520\" src=\"https:\/\/www.patrizia.foundation\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG-20220111-WA0000.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"Buyamba, Uganda\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.patrizia.foundation\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG-20220111-WA0000.jpg 1040w, https:\/\/www.patrizia.foundation\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG-20220111-WA0000-980x490.jpg 980w, https:\/\/www.patrizia.foundation\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG-20220111-WA0000-480x240.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1040px, 100vw\" class=\"wp-image-244956\" \/><\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_row et_pb_row_8  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et_block_row\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_column_4_4 et_pb_column et_pb_column_11  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et-last-child et_block_column\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_text et_pb_text_8  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p>To help fund the new measures, staff at PATRIZIA UK organised an event for volunteers, the 2021 Lake District Charity Challenge, resulting in more then \u20ac100,000 of donations being raised for the school in Buyamba.
