At the #AnnualPhilanthropySymposium2025, one truth stands out: what we do for others lives on—that’s our legacy. As donor trends shift, let’s stay generous, honest & purpose-driven. That’s how we move from success to significance.

Today, in partnership with @FarajaAfricaFdn, we hosted the Northern Uganda Youth Parliament in Gulu. Over 70 young people from Lango, Acholi, and Karamoja sub-regions took part. One thing is clear—when given the space, young people show up and engage meaningfully.

Today, we paused—not for others, but for ourselves. A refreshing Staff Training & Wellness Check-In at Skylark Park gave us space to breathe, reflect, and reconnect. We were reminded that mental health matters even for changemakers. We are stepping into July as healed healers 💚

Today, we join the national commemoration of #InternationalDayOfStreetChildren in Mbale City. Most young people in street situations feel like they have nothing to lose. That changes when someone listens. At @HashtagGulu, we engage, not rescue. We empower, not impose.

We couldn't have wrapped up our #16DaysOfActivism more meaningfully than by joining @UHRC_UGANDA in Amuru yesterday. Our theatre team delivered a powerful drama highlighting the devastating impact of violence on women, girls, children and families. #EndVAWGNow

Domestic violence is tearing families apart and pushing young people to the streets. During the #16DaysOfActivism, we teamed up with @RadioPacisGulu for a dialogue on building safe, loving homes. Let's take responsibility and create a brighter future for our children. 💙 #EndGBV
