Bringing Bright Futures to Lira Town College—Join Me

Dear Friends and Supporters,

I'm incredibly grateful to announce that, thanks to all the generosity, all of my personal travel and family support expenses have been fully funded for my upcoming teaching term at Lira Town College, a vibrant public high school located in the heart of Northern Uganda. My time is donated entirely, ensuring every additional penny raised goes directly to benefit the students and school. Our focus now shifts to something equally vital: providing essential educational materials, nutritional support, and other critical needs for the students and staff of this remarkable institution. With an annual tuition of only $300 per year and limited government funding, resources for the school's 2,700 students—1,400 of whom board at the school—are extremely limited.

As many of you know, my passion for education has driven my entire career. From tutoring during my college years to mentoring students during graduate school and eventually teaching in both public and private schools in New England, I've consistently found joy in helping young minds thrive. Yet, never have I been as inspired as during my visit to Lira Town College in 2023. Despite overcrowded classrooms and limited resources, the students there demonstrate exceptional dedication, discipline, and academic promise. I believe deeply in their potential.

This next phase of fundraising is dedicated solely to the students' educational and nutritional needs. Every donation will directly support critical supplies such as textbooks, laboratory equipment, classroom materials, and meals. Money stretches remarkably far in Uganda—every contribution, large or small, has a tangible and significant impact.

As a PhD Chemist committed to transparency and accountability, I assure you that I will personally oversee the responsible use of every dollar raised. Detailed updates and documentation of your contributions' impacts will be regularly shared, ensuring complete transparency and effectiveness.

We also warmly welcome personalized initiatives. If you have specific ideas or projects in mind—whether supporting individual students, particular classes, recreational activities, innovative educational programs, or festivities—I’m excited to discuss them directly with Headmaster Levi Abongo. Levi is a dedicated, visionary leader eager to collaborate with us to significantly enhance the educational experience at Lira Town College.

Together, we have ambitious plans, including ensuring students achieve universally understood English fluency and building cultural and economic bridges through digital education initiatives. Northern Uganda has much to offer the global community—talented, resilient young people ready to engage meaningfully with the world. Your support can transform that potential into reality.

I strongly believe that, together, we can achieve something truly incredible. Your generosity will not merely change lives—it will build lasting connections, foster global understanding, and create enduring opportunities. We sincerely hope many of you will be inspired to visit us in Uganda or engage in other meaningful ways.

Please join us on this meaningful journey. Every bit of support matters and is deeply appreciated.

With heartfelt thanks,

Jason Boyle
