Charlene Barr, had the faith to dream of building a school in Uganda. Through Charlene’s Project, her family and friends have continued that dream since she died in 2010.
It has never been the intention that Charlene’s Project would last forever.
It has long been the plan that once Charlene Secondary School was established the work would pass over to our Ugandan colleagues.
At the end of August 2027, that time will come.
Meanwhile there is work to be completed with the ongoing building and equipping of vocational blocks at Charlene Secondary School.
As Charlene’s Project transfers the oversight of Charlene Secondary School to Charlene Education Foundation – WE WANT TO FINISH WELL.
Help us to complete what Charlene started.
