13 year old Jolly Muhindo, a primary six pupil at Ighomerwa primary school located on the steep hill of Bukonzo sub-county in Bundibugyo district wants to become a nurse. Each day, she walks more than a kilometre up hill to her school. Owing to its location, access to power is a dream far from reach; she uses daylight and the local kerosene candle to revise her books. This is the reason why Save the Children in Uganda donated solar lamps to the school, to provide light for upper-class pupils so they could continue their studies at night with sufficient lighting.
