In Partnership With: Bourofaye Christian School (BCS)
Proposed Project Dates
16th to 30th October 2021
About The Mission
Bourofaye Christian School (BCS) is a ministry of WEC International (Worldwide Evangelization for Christ), in Senegal, and was set up to provide an education for the children primarily of WEC missionaries in Senegal and surrounding countries. However, the School is now used by families from many other mission agencies too. The school teaches the IGCSE syllabus to around 70-80 students aged between 5 and 16, many of whom board. Without this school many missionaries would need to do home tuition or return home from the field. LIFT have been involved since the early days of construction of the school.
About The Work
There are a number of construction projects that are required and we will be involved in some or all of them, depending on the number and skills of our volunteers.

2 Construction of a new gym for weight training and working out, including a reinforced concrete floor, low walls, roof, mosquito netting and electrical lights for evening workouts.
3. Constructing natural ventilation holes in the existing sports hall, allowing for permanent protection against the ingress of mosquitos and dust.
