VRS Media Projects

As part of our social responsibility, VRS Media has come up with its own contribution to sustainable development named VRS Media Gives Back.

Today corporate social responsibility goes far beyond the old philanthropy of the past - donating money at the end of the financial year – Instead it’s now an all year round responsibility.

VRS Media’s role in the MDGs will not just be through reporting on developments in the MDG Review magazine, but we now want to have a chance to work with local communities on various MDG projects that help change lives such as;

  • HIV and Aids
  • Water and Sanitation
  • Food and Agriculture
  • Education

We are inviting Individuals, NGO’s, Charities, and Working groups all over the world, that are either working or know of a group of people that have a project but no resources to implement or take it forward.

Complete an application form with the relevant details, include as much information as possible, and attach images or documents that may support your application. At the end of the MDG Review Campaign, we will go through the applications and select the one that’s stands out.

In the following campaign we will then run a case study on that group or organisation, showing our readers how our contribution has made a difference.

Managing Director

State University & Jotsholo Secondary School PDF Print E-mail

State university and Jotsholo Secondary SchoolJotsholo Secondary School was established in 1980 and this was one of the best ‘O’ level results producers in the district. As a day secondary School, most of its text books were running short every term due to students borrowing some books for their home study purposes; this meant the life cycle of most books was shortened. Many would not be returned and students would give all the many reasons why the text book cannot be returned.

Gomoza Ward Rural PDF Print E-mail

Gomoza Ward RuralSibambene High School and Gomoza Primary School are located in Gomoza Ward just nearby a big Roman Catholic Church and home of Priests. The ward is not only having two schools, but there are four. The two have been serviced since 2005 and what is lacking is connection of electricity supply to the Administration Block, Class Rooms and Teachers Cottages. The school hoped to be connected in the same year of servicing but this was not done and the school has the following classes: - Form one X two, Form two, Form Three, Form Four, Lower Form and Upper Form. It has received assistance from the government of ten (10) computers but there are not used due to lack of electricity within the school.

Jotsholo 70 Village Sanitation PDF Print E-mail

Jotsholo 70 Village SanitationWater and Sanitation remains a challenge for many in the developing world, and with the challenge of the MDGs, some of us began to see the light and the end of the tunnel. We are just a fraction of the BIG problem that faces us, but we believe with this single foot step towards changing our situation may result in us celebrating the achievement of the MDGs in 2015.

Jotsholo Homesteads Electrification PDF Print E-mail

Jotsholo Homesteads ElectrificationThe 70 homesteads are part of Jotsholo Village. They are scattered around the growth Point just by the east. These homesteads were very unfortunate, when the Rural Electrification Programme were doing pole and electricity wire mounting, they did it along the main roads only. The well up one were able to pull to their homesteads. This resulted in many homesteads to remain unassisted; also it was not easy for any individual to do anything considering the hush economic status.
