Roof Appeal Launched

21st April 2024

The Gambia experiences a wet season from June to October.  Unfortunately the roof of the school leaks, this means that the school may need to close to keep the children safe.

When Christine purchased the land and built the three classrooms in 2018, she paid for this from her own savings. She didn't have sufficient funds to put a good quality roof on it. After five years the roof has developed leaks and the timber frame is warped.  The school needs a new roof made from good quality corrugated steel sheets, and a new wooden frame built to last.  

The school doesn’t have the funds for a new roof and so the Baranku School Fundraising Charity has launched an appeal to raise 328,000GMD (£4,000) to replace it.  

Why not do some fundraising for the Roof Appeal? This can be great fun, do let us know if you are fundraising and we will do our best to publicise this through the charity's social media.
