Millennium Fellowship Project: Wandumbi Special School Project
This project aims to improve the quality of education and living of the special needs children at Wandumbi Special Unit School. We aim to donate durable learning equipment and toys, macintoshes and personal protective equipment (PPEs) for the caregivers. We managed to kickstart the fundraising for the project by organizing game nights and picnics to raise money. We also managed to invite one of the teachers in the school to give us a talk on special needs education.
