Morrison Rwakakamba gave 100 bags of cement to help fix his old primary school. The former Uganda Investment Authority chairman attended a church fundraising event for Rwabihurwa Primary School. Alumni raised over 10 million shillings and collected 173 cement bags during the ceremony. Rwakakamba brought nearly 2 million shillings from other former students who wanted to help.

Canon Peter Rwabihurwa started the school back during 1955 when education opportunities were limited. The institution became famous across Uganda after 175 students passed their exams with top grades during 1965. Government support began during 1975 when officials decided to help fund the school operations. Many graduates became successful leaders working for prisons, local government and media companies.

The headteacher praised former students for organizing the fundraising drive through their alumni network. School officials plan to use donations for building repairs and classroom improvements. The restored school will send students to a new government facility opening nearby. Community members believe better education access will help local families and their children succeed.
