Christ’s Embassy Primary School, Kasaka

Our Nursery & Primary School provides education for children from 4 to 14 to a high standard. In Uganda after 2 or 3 years of nursery school children complete 7 years of primary education at the end of which they take a national exam (Primary Leaving Exam – PLE). In 2024 all our pupils passed this exam. There is more information on this school here

LIA Christian Secondary School, Kasaka

Love in Action Christian Secondary School

Our Secondary School set in a village called Kasaka, near Lake Victoria provides 4 years of education leading to O Level National exams. We currently have around 100 pupils. In 2021 all our pupils passed their exams and we were place in the top 30% of all secondary schools in Uganda.

Kasaka Health Clinic

We built and equipped a much needed Health clinic in Kasaka

With the help of a group of British medical students, we have been able to build and equip a much needed Health clinic in Kasaka. This will provide healthcare where it is most needed.

At present, we employ 2 full-time nurses. They are responsible for the healthcare of the children at both schools. Each child has a health check every term, and a vaccination service is offered to all our children.

Farm

In 2020 we planted about 8 acres of coffee plants to help provide income for the schools

As a responsible organisation we need to be working towards generating income within Uganda to support the work amongst children and young people. With this in mind we have allocated land at our Kasaka site to run a farm. We are able to grow sufficient maize to provide porridge for all our primary school children every day. We also breed and rear pigs both for sale and to gift to families around the area.

Boarding Section

Help us allow children to board at school

It is very common for students in Uganda to board at school and following the COVID epidemic and our excellent exam results more pupils would prefer to board at school. During 2020 we were able to build dormitory for 40 girls and the picture show our latest building for the boys. We now need to equip this building with beds, mattresses, a solar lighting system and curtains. To do this will cost £7000 please help us buy buying an item for this new dormitory. See our shop page here for the items we need.

Mini Bus

Help us purchase a newer minibus

Our mini bus has served us well for about the last 7 years, but is now getting old and is too small for the number of children we look after! We plan to replace it with a 30 seater mini bus.

Powering Our Schools for a Brighter Future

The Challenge: No Mains Electricity

At Love in Action, we are committed to providing quality education and healthcare to children and families in rural Uganda. However, one of our biggest challenges is the lack of access to mains electricity at our schools.

Currently, we rely on a small solar system that provides only limited power, and when this is insufficient, we are forced to use a diesel generator. This comes with high fuel costs, noise pollution, and an environmental impact, making it an unsustainable long-term solution.

To provide a more reliable and sustainable source of power, we need to upgrade our solar system.

Our Solar Power Upgrade Plan

To meet the energy needs of our schools, we plan to install a 10KW lithium battery solar system, which will provide consistent, renewable power for lighting, classrooms, computer use, and essential school operations.

Planned System Components:

✅ 8 x 550W solar panels – Efficient energy collection for reliable power generation.

✅ 5KVA inverter – Converts solar energy into usable electricity for the school.

✅ 10KW lithium battery – Stores energy for use during cloudy days and evenings.

Benefits of Upgrading to a High-Capacity Solar System:

• Eliminates reliance on our diesel generator – reducing fuel costs and environmental impact.

• Provides a stable power supply – ensuring continuous learning without electricity interruptions.

• Enables better education – allowing the use of computers, projectors, and lighting for evening study.

• Supports the health clinic – ensuring power for medical equipment and essential services.

• Long-term sustainability – reducing operational costs and supporting environmental conservation.

Cost & How You Can Help

The total cost of this solar power upgrade is £6,000. This will provide a long-term, sustainable solution to our schools’ electricity needs.

We are seeking donations and sponsorships to help us fund this essential upgrade.

Ways You Can Support This Project:

📌 Make a Donation – Every contribution, big or small, brings us closer to our goal.

📌 Fundraise for Us – Organise an event or campaign to support this project.

📌 Sponsor a Solar Panel – Contribute towards one of the 8 panels (£100 each).
