Prior to the establishment of this Trust the Fox family have helped the village in various ways.

2003/4 the Fox family, together with generous donations from visitors to Mufindi Highland Lodge, assisted the Igoda Village School to build 4 new classrooms in a self help scheme, where the villagers supplied the manpower, and the Foxes, the cement, bricks and materials. The Government pledged to supply the roofing.

With further funds, we can help to provide more desks and chairs, so that each pupil has space to work. Stationary, books and other teaching materials can be purchased to help the sorely under resourced teachers.
The next stage in the project is to build a school hall which can double up as a village hall.

On a more basic level, the school requires a water supply.

It is important that donations are used to supplement the resources available to schools, rather than to replace them, so the necessary pressure was brought to bear on the government to ensure that they fulfilled their side of the bargain.
