My Work
Giving Hope Foundation is a non-profit organization that helps smallholder farmers in Uganda to grow their way out of extreme poverty. We do this by promoting sustainable agriculture, climate change mitigation and promoting the well-being among smallholder communities.
I am also the founder & CEO of Awamu Biomass Energy, a social enterprise that works to reduce burdens experienced by women and girls while preparing meals for their households through innovative clean cooking products. Awamu makes clean cooking Gasifier stoves; targeting households in peri-urban and rural communities of Uganda that exclusively use the inefficient 3-stone fire stoves for cooking.
One Gasifier stove has the potential to annually save $208 of household INCOME, prevent 8 TREES from being cut, save a local household (women and girls) 540 HOURS of collecting firewood and cooking, make 550 kg of CHARCOAL, and will eliminate 1.9t of CO2 EMISSIONS from reaching the atmosphere.
Am a Charter (or founding) member of the Rotary Club of Kampala Wandegeya which is a member of Rotary International. Rotary unites problem-solvers around the globe behind one goal: to do more good. Rotary members are driven to bring communities together to create lasting change. This is empathized in the motto of Rotary: “Service Above Self”.

I design WordPress WEB SITES and LOGOS for small – medium businesses and organizations to help increase their web presence which is a key component in today’s global village.
