Here is a quick recap of what I was up-to last week in Otuke. ShareCARD Join forces with Zetu Africa , Stanbic Bank Uganda and Okere City to deliver some much needed blue gifts to the learners in Okere City. #TransformingLives #PoweringAccesstoQualityEducation #SDG4

The solar bags provide an alternative light source for students, which is not yet connected to the national grid. Beyond lighting, the bags also support school administrators by tracking student attendance and academic performance. #PoweringAccesstoQualityEducation #SDG4

Each bag is equipped with a solar panel that charges as the child carries it on their back. At night, the stored energy can power a light bulb for studying or even charge a small gadget for their parents. #TransformingLives #PoweringAccesstoQualityEducation #SDG4

On behalf of ShareCARD, I commissioned a donation of over 60 packs of reusable sanitary towels and 120 period underwear, reinforcing our commitment to fighting menstrual poverty. #TransformingLives #PoweringAccesstoQualityEducation #SDG4

a promising sign of their eagerness to learn, broaden their dreams, and embrace technology and innovation. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Arnold Leon Mugagga 🏅 , Diana Ondoga and Mr. Ojok Okello and the teams that made this possible for including us.

We are excited to see how these solar bags and menstrual kits transform the learning experience for these students. Each solar bag is tagged with a ShareCARD QR code, enabling real-time impact traceability and ensuring students receive the resources intended for them.

The most daring fun and professional task I have ever undertaken is playing #Ocol in #EchoesOfLawino, a theatrical rendition of #OkotpBitek's #SongOfLawino and #SongOfOcol. The thought of a second edition sends cold chills to nerves. Thank you Jjumba Martin for this shot!
