Disability is not Inability Rotary Club of Nalya and Bandera Farmers Network Taking Hope to Teenage

Mothers

They have selected them to have an opportunity go through the mindset change to help them change the way they look at themselves and taken them on a mentorship journey that will see them transform into great business men and women.

Special thanks to Rtn Farouk Kibaba and Rtn Afan Abdallah of this great club for the support and being visionary to creating an enabling environment to transform society.

At the inception of the project, there was lost hope in the teenage mothers, youth and leaders on how they can transform their communities with passion. To the change currently, it’s evidenced that joy within people is the first community transformation you can ever create, seeing people generating happiness for themselves and hoping tomorrow may be guaranteed and great again is a win.

The youth formed groups and initiated a project for making shoes which generates income to the group and ensures continuity of togetherness, these youth report that the trainings have been life changing since they are able to generate money as a group and in the near future, they will be able to have individual incomes that will support their families.

Group savings as part of the activities being carried out, the group initiated saving 400 ugx every week, they hope to increase the amount of money to be saved every week so that they can have more money to inject into their shoe making business. Special thanks to the Rtn Fathila Nanozi for the dedication to support the support the activities on behalf of her Rotary Club.
