Kampala, Uganda – ATC Uganda has inaugurated a new classroom block at Kibuye Primary School in Kampala, as part of its corporate social responsibility efforts to improve learning conditions for Ugandan children.
The new classroom block, the third of its kind constructed by ATC Uganda, will benefit over 1,000 students and 25 teachers at the school.
