Challenges for 2007

The main challenge for the School in 2007 is the building program at the new campus. To be ready for students at the beginning of 2008, the new campus needs buildings (classrooms, administration and work rooms), furniture, computers, library, hall and kitchen, toilets, water, electricity and all the basics for a new school.

Three reasons to support the School of St Jude

1. All funds go directly to the school and are used for running the school.
2. Hands-on management of the school by the very capable Gemma Sisia. — "Lunch for 2,400? No worries!"
   
3. The school meets the very real needs of bright children from poor families in an impoverished country where education often means classes of 40-60 children who share a handful of books.
