Almost all the students at
God Cares High School live on campus for it is over an hour away from God Cares Primary School where most of the students come from. There is no way to go back and forth each day to school (like many who had walked to school or took the bus when they lived near the Primary School from the surrounding slums or villages, such as Bukasa or Kabalagala). Since we are looking at a high school population this year that may reach 800,
there is an immediate need for dormitories.
Currently, the GCHS kitchen building has been transformed into a huge girls' dorm with
three-story bunk beds, sometimes sleeping two students to a bed, filling the space. Even the near completed Bethuel Dongo Assembly Hall's bottom floor also houses the senior girls (where the future teachers' quarters will be.) The high school boys are nestled on the fourth floor of the five-story high school building in a space that could be used for classrooms. This dorm project must begin NOW at God Cares High School.
You can be a part of laying the foundation by giving a gift of any amount towards the construction of the dorms.

A Call to Buyamba Ambassadors
Buyamba continues to grow every year. Much of our growth has been organic and by word of mouth as God has continued to move on people's hearts to empower the future generation of Uganda to impact their nation for Christ.
This year we're making it easier than it's ever been to
"Share Buyamba" with your friends and family, by offering brand new promotional materials and instructions that will empower you to spread the vision and mission of Buyamba on your own, or feature Florence Dongo if she is near your home town.
