URGENT!!! HELP US BUILD A PRIMARY SCHOOL!

We have begun classrooms with temporary facilities and temporary authority to operate by the government of Uganda. This authority will expire by either August or November of this year so we must have some permanent facilities in place by then. To build to government standards, we estimate the total cost of every thing to be $130,000. We began with 300 students and by January of 2016 we expect over 500 students with 300 being girls.
