Renovation of Yuyu primary school (Shabunda)

Description

From September 2003 to April 2004, the first project we supported and implemented was the renovation of the Yuyu primary school in Shabunda (South Kivu). The EPA Yuyu school complex was built of baked bricks but covered with metal sheets that needed to be replaced. The school had twelve operational classrooms and a headmaster's office. With the school's population growing, at least four new classrooms needed to be built.

Thanks to donations, the school has been completely renovated. Twelve additional classrooms have been built, including latrines. 600 children currently attend the school.
