Njara primary school has revealed a willingness to welcome support towards improving the health and sanitation of their school as promised by Rwenzori Aid a non-government organization.
Based in Rwengoma Fort Portal City, Rwenzori Aid launched a football tournament dubbed Cooperate Games For WASH 2022, that has attracted more than 30 companies and organizations to solicit money to support government-aided primary schools.
According to Amon Murungi, the director Rwenzori Aid, companies have decided to start with Njara P/S school, considering the bigger enrolment and their urgent need for toilets and water taps.
