Projectors

Provide our staff with the ability to provide improved training and share knowledge in a more efficient manner. The 2 projectors at Ekisa are in high demand as they are currently shared by all departments and frequently used for presentations and training. By funding this project, you help many of our departments to conduct training that improves the lives of not only the children we serve on our programs but also many, many others. These projectors will be used by our school team for special education and inclusion training for teachers from local schools, by our therapy team to continue to improve their knowledge and skills, and by our Training and Equipping team as they equip other organizations to better serve children with disabilities. We are so excited to share the knowledge and expertise our staff have gained with others and to expand the reach and impact of our work far beyond our own walls and programs.

computers

Provide our staff with the computers they need to do their work effectively. So much of the work that we do is made more effective and efficient through the use of well-running computers.

Temporary
offices
$10,000
We have outgrown our current office space. It’s hard to work when you don’t have space to do so, and we currently have more staff needing desks than space to put them, leaving some staff members to float between desks. By donating to this project you can help ensure that all of our staff have office space at our current Jinja location, while also providing us with an asset that can eventually follow us when we move to our new land and permanent space where the container can be used as needed.
