The cycling2school project gives students in Kisozi the chance to buy a bike on credit. Initially, this project started for students at Buzaya secondary school in Kisozi, but as the program expands students from other schools are able to participate as well. Many students have to come from far and need to go to school on foot. Because of the large distance and other tasks at home, those students often miss out on education because they come late at school. Also, by having to go to school on foot and having to walk such a large distance, students can come across dangers on their way to school. Apart from giving students the chance to buy a bike on credit, Hope Alive Uganda has set up a training programme for youths and a small repair shop has been opened.   To be able to run this project well, Hope Alive Uganda has formed teams to monitor the project. This project is meant to empower the youth in Kisozi as it is an income generating project through which the project will be able to sustain for a number of years. This cycling2school project is a fairly new project set up at the end of April 2010. Within one month all 50 bikes were sold on credit to students!  In 2010, students at Buzaya secondary school wrote essays about how this bike has changed their lives in a positive way. Students at the Citadel College in the Netherlands judged these essays and chose a winner. Tabitha Bako won the essay contest and received a bike for free! Buzaya secondary school is now in charge of monitoring this project.
