Play-Based Learining

Play-based learning is an approach to education where children learn through engaging in play activities that stimulate their imagination, creativity, and cognitive development. It is grounded in the belief that play is a natural and essential part of a child\'s learning process. Rather than focusing solely on traditional classroom instruction, play-based learning encourages children to explore, experiment, and problem-solve in a hands-on, interactive environment.

Success Stories

Hear from those whose lives we've touched

""Working as a general worker at Rufunsa Girls Secondary School has been my main source of income. At first, I was afraid that chicken rearing would take too much time and affect my job. However, after receiving training and mentorship in vegetable and broiler production, I started my own poultry project. I am now rearing 400 chickens, plan to expand further, and also manage a garden.""
