Learn about their story

Students at the International School of Bucharest helped establish the initiative that later became NIA. Their first fundraising work supported a clean-water well in Kabula, Uganda, followed by a second well in Kakira and reusable sanitary-pad support for students in Wakiso District. The experience demonstrated how persistent student organisation, school support and reliable local partnerships could turn fundraising into visible, documented impact.
