KAMULI – Prudential Uganda, the winner of People’s Choice Awards at the 2024 Insurance Innovation Awards has in partnership with seven Rotary clubs successfully completed the renovation and construction projects at Bulamuka Primary School in Kamuli District.
These efforts were part of a broader initiative by Prudential Uganda to support educational institutions in overcoming the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic. This initiative is rooted in our Purpose For Every Life, For Every Future and within our sustainability ambition which is to deliver real world impact and build long-term resilience for the communities in which we operate in.
The global health crisis brought unprecedented challenges, particularly in the education sector. In response, Prudential Uganda donated $70,000, equivalent to Uganda Shillings 261,000,000, to kickstart the transformation of Bulamuka Primary School.
Tetteh Ayitevie, CEO of Prudential Uganda, emphasized the significance of the renovation in uplifting education standards, not just at Bulamuka Primary School but across Uganda. “At Prudential, we believe in the transformative power of education. Our partnership with the Rotary Clubs underscores our commitment to empowering the next generation. By creating a safe and conducive learning environment at Bulamuka Primary School, we are investing in Uganda’s future,” he said.
The renovation project addressed crucial infrastructure gaps, including classroom block refurbishments, a new kitchen construction, installation of sanitation facilities, rainwater harvesting tanks, and tree planting around the school premises. These enhancements ensure that students receive quality education in a safe and conducive environment.
Edward Kakembo Nsubuga, Governor of Rotary District 9213, expressed gratitude for the collaborative effort, stating: “Rotary Clubs are dedicated to serving communities and addressing critical needs. The partnership with Prudential Uganda exemplifies the collective impact we can achieve when organizations collaborate for a common cause. We are proud to be part of this initiative to enhance educational opportunities for children in Kamuli District.”
Prudential Uganda, in conjunction with seven Rotary Clubs (Rotary Club of Kampala City, Rotary Club of Bugolobi Morning Tide, Rotary Club of Bweyogerere Central, Rotary Club of Mahaba, Rotary Club of Kulambiro, Rotary Club of Saturday E-Jazz, and the Rotaract Clubs of Tankhill City and Kansanga Hope), is optimistic that this collaboration will have a positive impact on the lives of students, teachers, and the entire community.
