Bibangwa School: A Handout for Children in Crisis from Peter Virdee

The philanthropist, Peter Virdee continued his work for people to create a roadmap for their future. His love for mankind is inevitable which drives him to take his philanthropy work far beyond what he imagined. Bibangwa School is one of the examples that explain the noble work of Peter Virdee's Foundation. The Foundation works in conjunction with a wide variety of charities but its core aim is to help women and children who have or who are in danger of suffering mental, physical or sexual abuse.

The Bibangwa School is set on the High Plateau in South Kivu, the Democratic Republic of Congo. Before the support of Peter Virdee, the school is in very drastic condition, the absolute dark from inside, without any desk and bench, the roof and walls are made of stick and mud. Talking about the education, is also in a pathetic estate, teachers with no proper qualification and training were handling the future of Bibangwa.

With the handout of Virdee Foundation along with the Parents of Bibangwa, rejuvenates the shape and estate of Bibangwa School that has 165 students to get educated. It helps to build a school with Solid brick with deep foundations, metal roofing sheets, and cement flooring. Every child now has a space to sit comfortably and learn in a stable and fit capacity thanks to the new desks and seats in the school's six classrooms. As in past the used to lean over books or write in books perched on their laps. Every classroom has windows to let the natural light and air to flood the classrooms, allowing children to focus on their studies.

This is not the only contribution of Peter Virdee to the society. There's so many alms Mr. Virdee has done till date. In the way to brightening the lives of seriously ill children and their families, he started the Starlight Children's foundation. This foundation delivers various program such as hospital play, distraction, entertainment services, wish granting and Starlight Escapes.
