Former trainee, now ISSB mason, Musa has learned a new trade over the past 10 months and graduated from our training course with flying colours. He is now capable of designing and building structures with the environmentally friendly technology he was trained in.

HYT have left 2 ISSB presses in the area and Musa says “I hope to find some money and use ISSB to continue to develop our place here. I would like to start in my own home”.

Elizabeth is the cook at Kizigo Secondary school. She “loves the new school kitchen and store” as it has given her a cleaner and more pleasant working environment.

A senior girl commented that “we are pleased with our new kitchen; now our food is ready for us to eat when we break from lessons.”

Juma is 7 years old and goes to Marinatha Primary School in Kizigo Village. He is still learning to speak English but loves his new classroom because it is cooler, larger and less dusty than the temporary structure he worked in before HYT built the new nursery block .
