He is a Rotarian with the Rotary Club of Wakiso and Chairs the Bubbles Buddy Group as well as heading the Directorate of Investment of the Club. He was born from Kyali, grew up from Kyalugo, studied at Kaddugala SS; all these places are found in Nyendo-Mukungwe Division, one of the two Divisions that make up Masaka City. The kind of life he experienced while growing up and the hardships he went through to acquire education have been the key factors that pushed him to start up this Foundation to help the less privileged in his community.

The Foundation comes at a time when the country is faced with socio-economic difficulties in various ways. All communities are struggling in terms of infrastructure, health, education, household incomes and many other aspects of life. As a Foundation, we yearn to join hands with our community to devise means together to overcome the scathing socio-economic challenges.
