Project Description

Region: Africa

Country: Uganda

Location: Wakiso, Uganda

Total Budget: $60,000

Areas of Focus: Community economic development, The environment



The project has identified dark spots among dwelling places within the city and town suburbs that lack open community lighting. The project seeks to acquire solar powered street metallic poles and station a couple or more in specific danger dark spots that occasionally pose a threat of enabling criminal attack to dwellers in the night. These also include dark night roadside markets that regularly tap power through illegal connections to light the space for their merchandise, motorcyclist and taxi stages that require illuminating in order to enhance the safety of the late evening travelers on their way to and from work. This include school going children who rise up so early and stand by in dark stages to wait for School buses or walk to school through dangerous dark spots.

Note: as of July 1, 2015 there is a 5% additional support fee for cash contributions. This fee does not appear in the financials above because it does not apply if the funds are sent directly to the project account (without going through TRF, and therefore without Paul Harris credit). Clubs sending their cash contribution to TRF must be aware they will have to send an additional 5%.
