Until 2017, the Mirembe Cottage of Street Girls was situated in a rented building which doesn’t have provided enough room for the increasing number of girls for quite some time. Thanks to some donations we were able to buy a piece of land in Wakikoola which is only a few minutes away from Jinja. With this project the founders of Sonrise Ministries also want to help people who don’t belong to their organisation.
The extensive project envisages the construction of several buildings like two residential buildings, one for the girls and one for the staff, several school buildings, one water well, sanitary facilities, solar collectors, a defensive wall, a cafeteria, a small hospital and many more. The project will be realised according to the incoming amount of donations. It will also benefit the surrounding community which currently lacks a school, a hospital and only offers a few jobs nearby.
The residential building was completed in August 2018 and has already been occupied. Some of the school buildings were put into operation in February 2018, with the other school buildings following in the subsequent years. In addition, a building for the kitchen and a sewing class have already been constructed. Before the association was founded, 15,000 Euros had already been collected for the residential building. Currently, the most urgent need is for donations for the construction of a small clinic, as there is no medical care in the surrounding area.
For this project the amount of donations collected by Peace’s Hope e.V. has reached:
0 Euro
Already invested as an association locally: 25,581 Euro
