EarlyBird256 joins the Global Giving Community
“We are proud to be part of the GlobalGiving network and to share our passion for #DoingLittleThingsWithPassion. Our workshops are mostly funded by our own resources with some support from the generous EarlyBird256 Squad. This opportunity will help us expand our impact and reach more students who need our help. Besides providing arts education and free breakfast, we also want to help our students complete their secondary education and beat the odds” Reginah Sanyu, Founder
EarlyBird256 participates in the Drop Everything And Read (D.E.A.R) initiative
Our space is not just a place to study, but also a place to connect, collaborate, and have fun. We want our students to feel inspired, motivated, and supported by us and by each other. We are proud of what they have achieved so far and we look forward to seeing them grow and thrive in the future.
#UnitedNationsDAY 5 ways our space aligns with the Sustainable Development Goals
The 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) define the world we want and they were created to apply to all nations to ensure that no one is left behind. In no particular order, read more to learn more about which goals we were inspired by to make sure that this means that the girls living in deep rural areas are not left behind. This article is a reflection of how our mission aligns with 5 of the 17 SDGs.
The manifestation of the EarlyBird256 Community Center
The students are showing up in numbers whenever we have an event and we are grateful for that. With our mantra of #doinglittlethingswithpassion, we will continue equipping the space with resources that will help our students perform better in schools as well as their communities.
We want this to be a safe space for the children to know that they are supported. A space to laugh, speak their truth, learn their worth, process and understand their feelings. Most importantly, this space serves as a reminder that they are not alone.
Job shadow visit to Kamuli’s KBS Radio Station
We invited five students from the current Rev. Nayenga Candidate class to do a job shadow at a local KBS Radio Station in Kamuli. These five students scored the top results in their EarlyBird practice exams, so they were rewarded with a tour and lunch at the radio station. We welcome future collaborations with any Ugandan business or organization that is willing to invite our students over for a job shadow. We want the students to experience first hand the many ways they can be amazing in their own communities. Below are the reviews from the student representatives.
