Fostering Community Engagement for Stronger Schools
At Victorious Education Services, we champion community engagement as the cornerstone of thriving educational environments.
We prepare our learners and stakeholders to be active community participants, serving others and practically living out their faith as Jesus Christ encourages in Matthew 25:35-40: "For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me... Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me."
Our Goal
To enable communities to identify, mobilise and connect the resources within and around them and utilise them to solve their challenges.
Our Focus
Education Empowerment
Victorious Education Services empowers communities through educational programs. They offer free computer and life skills training, along with bursaries, to over 200 children, and provide teacher and leadership training to enhance regional education. Their "Soap Project" sustainably funds these initiatives, alongside strong community partnerships, aiming for holistic community advancement.
Health and Safety Enhancement
Victorious Education Services champions community health and safety through its "Counselling and Empowerment Centre offering vital support to pupils, parents, staff, and local residents. Since 2012, our health education initiatives have reached nearly 2,000 annually, complemented by annual Free Medical Camps benefiting over 16,500 individuals. Collaborative efforts also established the Bakuli Community Police Post (impacting 20,000 residents) and the Only Public Toilet in Bakuli, serving 5,000 people and emphasising hygiene.
Empowering Enterprise
Victorious Education Services drives enterprise development through training in financial literacy, business management, and entrepreneurship, impacting approximately 750 individuals across ten community groups since 2019. Utilising an Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) approach, we have spurred diverse economic activities like soap and clothing production. Our 2022 ABCD Centreoffers ten lock-up shops for product marketing, fostering self-reliance. The Centre also serves as a learning hub for various organisations and community leaders, with KCCA donating a briquette solar dryer to boost production by the God‘s Grace group
Environmental Stewardship
Victorious Education Services champions environmental preservation through its Tree Planting Campaign and Kicking Kaveera Out of Uganda" initiative, also leading the "Community General Cleaning" that helped Bakuli become Rubaga Division's cleanest village.
