Report: Butajra Prison

"Cast your burden on the Lord, and He will sustain you; he will never permit the righteous to be moved"
PSALM 55:22

Blocket Machine

The introduction of a blocket machine, designed specifically for blocket construction, marks a significant step towards enhancing the financial prospects of the inmates. This machine, now available on the market, offers a promising avenue for generating income within the prison community. Furthermore, the acquisition of a water pump, primarily intended for irrigation purposes, has proven to be a game-changer. Inmates are making substantial profits through efficient irrigation practices, which not only enrich their own lives but also contribute to the prison’s self-sufficiency.

Beyond these industrial pursuits, inmates are actively channeling their creativity into art and craftwork. These skillful endeavors have transcended the prison walls, with the products being sold in the market. This entrepreneurial spirit among inmates serves a dual purpose: it not only generates income to support their needs but also instills a sense of purpose and achievement in their daily lives.

In addition to these initiatives, many inmates are enthusiastically participating in sewing machine training programs. This training equips them with valuable skills in textile and fashion, opening up opportunities for income generation and future employment prospects upon their release. These diverse initiatives collectively exemplify the commitment to self-sufficiency and rehabilitation within the prison system, providing inmates with the tools, knowledge, and opportunities they need to transform their lives and contribute positively to society.
