Taking on one of the biggest
challenges of my journey yet!

◦ Through Sportrise, l'm embarking on
a tour to bring football & opportunity

wdfuganda Empowering The Next Generation!

This evening, we had the privilege of engaging with students
from Kyambogo University's RWEKS4 at an in-person event
attended by over 52 enthusiastic students!

Our discussion centered around "Embracing Uncertanity &
Finding Your Passion.' We encouraged these bright minds to
explore their interests, values, and strengths to discover their
purpose.

The Key Takeaways:

⁃ Find your purpose and align it with your passion.
-Surround yourself with the right mentorship and guidance.
Embrace uncertainty and view it as an opportunity for growth.

We're grateful for the opportunity to inspire and empower
these students. Special thanks to RWEKSA for organizing this
event!

Let's continue to nurture and support the next generation of
leaders and change-makers!
