Our major projects in 2012 included two science labs, three book libraries, one computer lab (E-library), and renovation of five classrooms as a part of our School Improvement Program (SIP). As a part of Social Business for Education (SBE), we started a fish farm, one pig farm, and one recreational boat ride project.
    Donations were made available by Ncell, Western Union Foundation, Union Finance Ltd., Sieun Alice Park family (South Korea), Rainwater Harvesting Capacity Center-Biogas Sector Partnership (RHCC-BSP).  
    Another major achievement for this year has been the fund raising strategies. Implementing learning from previous years, we were able to raise our targeted goal during the Summerfest 2012 event held in the Washington DC area. Numerous individual donors and volunteers have also been a part in helping us make substantial contributions to the children and communities in our project sites.
