Developing Leaders

Critical thinking is at the forefront of learning.  This skill enables a student to determine how to make sense of the world using personal observation and understanding. It also helps young women and men become civic leaders in support of building a community of collaboration and service.  That is why Hope for Uganda focuses on supporting the education of students at both Archbishop Flynn Secondary School (AFSS) and Sacred Heart Seminary (SHS).  They are able to shape a better society to live in by knowing and respecting rights, laws, and being christianly.

Security Fence

Priority: 
This is some text inside of a div block.
Completed: 
Launched: 
January 1, 2021

Archbishop Flynn Secondary School has common and unique security risks. Common intruders include stray animals (mainly goats and cows) wandering onto the campuses destroying plants and flowers while leaving behind what all animals leave behind!

Uncommon intruders are bad people who intend to do harm. While theft is an ever-present threat, female students are vulnerable to sex exploitation in Northern Uganda as in other parts of Africa. At the moment, school leadership cannot guarantee security on the campus of AFSS.

The project will construct over 4,000 linear feet of fencing 9 feet high - a combination of chain link fencing (1,600) and solid brick wall (2,400 ft).
