Malek Primary School in South Sudan

ImpactAVillage funded Malek Primary School in Bor, South Sudan with the direction of Deng Jongkuch, one of the Lost Boys of Sudan. The elders of the village agreed to donate and clear the land for the school in addition to having villagers help with the construction. Under the direction of a contractor hired by ImpactAVillage, the villagers cleared the land, dug the foundation, made bricks from cement and sand, and built the walls of the school. All the materials for the school including cement, lumber, rebar, and roofing material were purchased by ImpactAVillage. The 5-room school house was completed in 2010 and holds more than 700 students. The cost for the school was about $25,000 which was raised by generous donations to ImpactAVillage. Books, uniforms and teachers were also funded by ImpactAVillage.
