We can’t thank you enough, because we had no idea how we were going to deal with students when they got back to school.

Mringa Secondary School
“Please pass my gratitude to the GLAMI administration, the school is very grateful for the support. The two hand washing stations will cover so many students. The tanks will be stationed at the main entrance to be used when students arrive in the morning. We have many students, so 1000 litres of water is enough every morning, and it is easier compared to when they were using buckets which were required to be filled with water every few minutes.

Tarakea Secondary School
“We are grateful to have such an organization that keeps on thinking about us.”
From our Mentor: At the beginning, this Partner School thought GLAMI support would only be for Kisa Scholars, but they were surprised to see that it went to the whole school. The head of school and the liaison were so happy to have this quick response toward the COVID-19, and the other teachers were so happy for our great support, they wished us all the best and blessings in all of what we do.
Kibosho Girls
“I wish you the great blessings in all of your works, and may God increase you more as you keep touching the life of girls.”
From our Mentor: The Head of School was happy to see how we think of them and she sent many blessings to all of our work, and said she had asked God to bless us more and increase us in all of our work. She was so touched with our support.
Weruweru Girls
“Ooooh my, you guys are so helpful! I was wondering how we would get a second thermoscan, as so far we had one and it’s not enough for our whole school.”
From our Mentor: The Head of School said she was so frustrated due to the fact that she had only one thermoscan at the gate and she had a total number of 700+ students. Having the second thermoscan was of great support to them, as soon after form six leave they will be receiving the new form five scholars. Having two thermoscans at the gate was a big support and a great help to them. She really thanks the GLAMI administration for keeping on thinking about them.
