OUR GOAL and WHY IT MATTERS

We heard about Fruitful Standard Primary School whilst chatting to podcast guest Cat Aimi (singer, songwriter, plate-spinner).

Together, we’re raising funds to build proper toilet facilities for the children at the Fruitful Standard Primary School. A basic human need — with life-changing impact.

Fruitful is a dynamic, experimental school for 4 to 13 year-olds in South Uganda. Most of them are orphans and the others are neglected due to alcoholism, drugs, or abandonment. The school nurtures kids' creative, emotional, and intellectual power — from the ground up. But they need safe, clean, working toilets.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Think: Comic Relief meets Tiny Desk Concert!

  • Live-streamed acoustic performances + toilet chat from our amazing line-up of award-winning artists, straight from their homes around the world!
  • Stories from Fruitful’s students, founders, and friends
  • Real-time pledging, shoutouts, prizes, and community vibes
  • Bottom-tier humour and bog-standard jokes – don’t say we didn’t warn you!

HOSTS

Behind the Scenes of an Indie Artist is a podcast hosted by singer-songwriter Liz Lenten from the UK band Auburn. She brings her signature warmth, humour and insight alongside podcast producer Daisy Gilham as they chat in-depth with collaborators from the last 25 years.

For this special fundraising event livestream, they are delighted to be joined by guest presenter Kairen Kemp (BBC Unsigned/Reverb Radio) for an evening of live music, chat, storytelling and probably loads of toilet humour. Parental advisory - they have potty mouths when they all get together 🤭
