KANYIKE INITIATIVE FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
Turning Problems into Opportunities
Education
The organization has a primary school known as Magejjo Primary School. This has classes ranging from primary one to primary seven. The number of 200 Pupils is two hundred (200). These are mostly orphans due to the HIV/AIDS scourge.
Social Economic Empowerment
We have a project of skilling the youth mainly through carpentry and leather making which mainly targets school dropouts. This is because we have an ever increasing number of school drop outs now worsened by the COVID-19 Pandemic effects.
Health / Medical
In regard to health, the Organization has a health facility registered as St. Michael Health Centre 111. The health facility provides general health care and minor surgeries to the community. We also have the HIV/AIDS and Community based health care programmes (CBHC).
Education has always been the Kanyike Project's priority
Primary Education
In 1987 one teacher taught a handful of children under the shelter of a mango tree. Lessons had begun at Magejjo Primary School. Classrooms came next. A mud-walled school was quickly built and replaced with a sturdier building made from local bricks by 1994. But a devastating lightning strike in 1999 meant the school had to be rebuilt. The villagers rose to the challenge and the school has been maintained in a state of good repair since.
Nursary Education - Rise and Shine
The nursery section has twenty toddlers as well, mostly from families with severe effects of HIV/AIDS. The organization has been facilitating the welfare to these schools in terms of maize flour, sugar and beans . However, all this has come to a standstill at the moment due to the severe financial challenges at hand.
Join the community to give education to the children and together make them educated for their lives.
Skills Development - The Leather Workshop
The Skills Centre – with Leather and Carpentry Workshops – was established in 1994 to train some of the HIV/AIDS orphans. These workshops trains youngsters who are not able to afford to go to school and makes them highly employable once they have qualified.
Skills Development - Soap Making
Soap making in Uganda is a traditional craft deeply rooted in local culture and resources. Using natural ingredients like palm oil, shea butter, coconut oil, and plantain ash, communities create soap for hygiene, skincare, and trade. at KAINSUDE we have groups of young and elderly women who have taken it up as an income generating activity.

Socio-Economic Empowerment
Youth and Women Groups
LIVESTOCK initiatives all follow the same essential formula.
Cows are a good example. The local, hardy long-horned variety (which can cope with the local environment) are cross-bred with a European breed to maximise yield of milk or meat.
Education
Primary and Nursery Schools
Traditional houses in Uganda are built from basic materials like mud, wood and banana leaves; but over time, these buildings become unstable and unsafe. A Kanyike Project initiative is to encourage people to build safer houses from locally made brick; the resulting buildings are not only safer but longer lasting.
