 The hopeless situation of the kids going to school with torn and shattered school uniforms and attending school without shoes especially on cold and rainy days.

 The objective is to see all learners that were identified recieving uniform as this will encourage them in their studies.

 We have managed to raise 6 full school uniforms for 6 kids and this raises hope for more kids to receive uniform.

 Yes.

Name some of the challenges you face?

Where do you envision your project to be in 3 years time?

 For the project to supply uniforms to many learners and to expand the programme by raising stationary.
