Exploring Career Choices: An Academic Research Trip for Orphaned Students

Introduction:
The FER Integrated Orphanage School Program recently organized an academic research trip for older children who have reached secondary school level. The theme of the trip was "Choosing a Career," aimed at helping students shape their career choices. The trip took students to nearby markets, business centers, schools, factories, and agriculture farms, including Kaliro Open Market, Kaliro Bakery, Nesta Fuel Station, and NANA Farm Kaliro.

Challenges:
Despite the excitement and enthusiasm, the trip was not without challenges. Students had to walk long distances due to lack of transportation, which was exhausting. Additionally, the children spent the entire day without food, which affected their energy levels. Inclement weather and shortage of funds to support the trip further complicated the situation.

Objectives:
The research trip aimed to expose students to various career options, enabling them to make informed decisions about their future. By visiting different markets, business centers, schools, factories, and agriculture farms, students gained hands-on experience and insight into various professions.

Conclusion:
The academic research trip was a valuable experience for the students, despite the challenges faced. However, the school is currently facing difficulties in raising funds to renew the rent contract for the school premises. We appeal to our sponsors and well-wishers to assist us with an equivalent of $300 to add up t
to support the school's operations by renewing of the ren contract. It was initially $500 but have raised $200 And now need $300
