#AWishGranted by @thewishwallfoundation Tree planting is a great way to increase children interest in their local environment and achieve academic goals. Each school tree planting provides educators with the opportunity to inspire school administrators and pupils to affect positive change at their schools and in turn their communities. Thank you the Wish wall Foundation for the support and collaboration with the communities in Western Uganda.

Dream International is expressing a wish in planting crop friendly and fruit trees in Rwenzori mountain ranges.Planting trees will diversifies farming. Estimates claim forest-farms can be eight times more profitable than staple crops like grain, which can increase farmers' incomes and reduce rural poverty.

In the past few weeks, we have embarked on a renewed health project with the WishWall Foundation to support good health and well-being. We have made substantial progress with renovating the primary health care center. As a result of the tireless work of skilled labor, we have completed the flooring, replaced wooden window outlets with Aluminium windows, and fixed leakages on the roof. Also, we are happy to commence the reconstruction of the toilet facility, which will be completed in a few weeks. At the end of the toilet construction, we shall begin the final phase of painting and donating drugs and some medical equipment to the facility.
