Uganda’s Top Student
We have been so encouraged by the following report! All of our efforts to improve Alpha Omega School are bearing fruit - and many of you are part of this success story.
"By the time I completed primary level I had no hopes that I would also join secondary school because I am a poor orphan but by God's grace...."
Merab, now 20 years old, was supported by Covenant Mercies ( A US orphan support organization) through 6 years of high school at Alpha & Omega. Merab achieved the highest score in Economics and Mathematics in the whole of Uganda in the 2019 Advanced Certificate of Education! This is an amazing achievement and is a testimony to God's grace, her dedicated teachers, those who supported her and to all who have helped us make Alpha Omega the fruitful learning environment that it is. From that graduating class all 15 of the 15 students are in University now and one of the teachers, Oscar Mugumya was recognized as the second most effective Math teacher in Uganda. He is currently also TCI's Education officer.
Merab is now pursuing a Bachelors of Statistics at Makerere University, Uganda's top college. She participates in Pastor Moses church and campus fellowship and in her words "I am hoping to complete my studies safely and I am ready to change my community".
Without your help, this school would have closed its doors due to the challenges of Covid. Teachers have been paid, Covid compliance equipment and laboratory supplies have been purchased and significant progress on the girls dorm has been made. Thank you! You are making a tangible difference here!
