UHURU FIGHT MALARIA
Hello Friends of Uhuru,

I want to speak to you about something that matters more than football, more than donations, more than grades. This is about life and death. I don’t want to sound dramatic — but if these words grab your attention, then they have done their job.

Malaria is a deadly, preventable disease caused by Plasmodium parasites and spread by infected female Anopheles mosquitoes. It begins like the flu — fever, chills, headache — but if not treated quickly it can become severe: anemia, kidney failure, seizures, coma, and death. Symptoms usually appear 7 to 30 days after a bite.

Children under five are the most vulnerable. They have not yet developed immunity, and they bear the heaviest burden: about 80% of malaria deaths in Africa are children under five. Last year, roughly 481,500 children in Africa lost their lives to malaria. These are students, teammates, and futures cut short.

The heartbreaking truth is also a hopeful one: malaria is one of the most solvable diseases. We already have the tools that work:

Insecticide‑treated bed nets

Indoor residual spraying

Rapid diagnostic tests

Effective antimalarial medicines

Seasonal malaria chemoprevention

New vaccines (RTS,S and R21)

At Uhuru Football Academy, our mission is to protect the whole child — on the field, in the classroom, and in the community. That is why I am asking you to mobilize with Uhuru and become an advocate for malaria awareness where you live and work.

Here’s how you can help today:

Talk to your family, friends, and business associates about malaria and how preventable it is.

Share this message on social media to spread awareness.

Support organizations and local efforts that provide nets, tests, and treatment.

Encourage schools, youth groups, and community leaders to prioritize malaria prevention.

Making a difference starts with one person. I hope you will stand with UFA to protect the children we serve and the communities we love.

With gratitude,
Uhuru
Founder, Uhuru Football Academy

TRADEGY HITS UHURU FAMILY

Our hearts are heavy as we share in the sorrow of losing Amadu Jah. He was more than a student of Uhuru Academy—he was family. Amadu’s sunrise was on October 29, 2009, and his sunset was on December 6, 2025. As the captain of our U‑17 team, he led with humility, courage, and an unshakeable spirit.

.His kindness, leadership, and dedication left a profound mark on all of us, and we will carry his memory forward with love and gratitude.
To the Jah family, during this period of mourning, please know that you are not alone. We stand with you, praying for your strength, and honoring the beautiful life that Amadu lived.
His legacy will continue to inspire every young person who walks through the doors of Uhuru Academy.
May his soul rest in eternal peace, and may you find comfort in the love that surrounds you.

With love and sympathy,
Uhuru Academy

Why All Children Should Play Sports

Hello everyone, I hope your day has been filled with kindness and compassion.
Have you had the opportunity to assist someone in need? By giving a little of yourself, you can make a significant difference in someone’s life. All children should participate in sports due to the positive environment it fosters.
The following are some reasons why children should engage in sports: Children who play sports tend to achieve higher academic success. Girls who play sports are less likely to become pregnant. Participating in sports contributes to better physical and mental health. Children who play sports typically have more confidence and self-esteem. Playing sports helps children develop valuable life skills, such as time management, goal setting, discipline, and self-control. These are just a few of the many positive reasons why children should participate in sports. You can make a difference by encouraging children to participate in sports. You may also consider becoming a coach or mentor to help children engage in sports. Additionally, you can volunteer your time to help raise funds and reduce the financial cost of participating in sports. Thank you for taking the time to read this post. I encourage you to share it with others. I look forward to your comments. Go 📚⚽️📚⚽️

Education The Pathway Out Of Poverty

Good day, everyone. I hope you are all faring well.
Have you had the opportunity to assist someone navigating a very challenging time? If not, another chance to lend support will present itself tomorrow.
Those of us fortunate enough to have obtained a profession, whether through college or vocational education, you are in a better positioned economically to enhance your earning potential and provide a decent life for your families, unlike many individuals in other parts of the world.
education opens doors to opportunities. However, in regions such as Africa, the Caribbean, Central, and South America, accessing post-high school education is severely limited.
Even with a college or vocational education, individuals face limited opportunities due to the scarcity of economic resources within these countries. I speak from experience, having acquaintances and relatives in Liberia who hold college degrees yet struggle to make a decent living due to limited employment opportunities. This underscores the importance of Uhuru in creating education opportunities. We cannot accomplish this alone; we require your assistance in creating education opportunities. Thank you for your time. I look forward to reading your comments.
Remain true to yourself and do not let anyone dictate what you can achieve.
Go UHURU.📚⚽️📚⚽️

Hello everyone, I hope all is well in your part of the world.
Embracing self-belief is the foundation of inspiring others to believe in you.
Your personal growth and transformation are within your control, empowering you to author the next chapter of your life and create a lasting legacy.

The Power Of 1 making a Changed

What sparks transformative change? Often, it begins with a single visionary who ignites a movement, inspiring collective action and turning a shared vision into reality.
The concept of the 'power of one' highlights the profound impact one individual can have, generating a ripple effect that resonates far and wide.
This notion celebrates the potential for anyone to drive meaningful change, regardless of perceived limitations. Even the smallest action can inspire others to think differently and act. By embracing your unique ideas or aligning with organizations that share your values, you can be a catalyst for positive change.
Consider exploring opportunities with UHURU. Remember, your potential to make a difference is limitless – keep believing in yourself.

Uhuru Year End Donation Drive

Hello everyone. I hope life has been a blessing to you today. It's a lot easier to rise above negativity, as it holds you back from moving forward and realizing your full potential. When life seems difficult, take a moment to appreciate the blessings you have and not what you lack, and never dwell on the negative.

Did you do one good deed for someone today, that was not a family member or friend? If not, make a conscious effort to do it tomorrow.

As a nonprofit, 90% of our revenue is from donations. Your generous donations are the lifeblood of our organization, enabling us to provide education and sports opportunities to those in need. Our donation drive will run from November 1 to January 31.

Our target goal is $7000.

The donation campaign drive will be available on Facebook and other social media platforms.

The funds will be used for
Education supplies
Student Tuition/ scholarships
Health care and medical supplies
Christmas activities for students and families
As time goes on, I'll keep you updated on the progress of the drive.

Thanks for your time. We at Uhuru greatly appreciate your support.

Be well and stay safe, because you are loved and deserving of the best. I look forward to reading your comments. GO UHURU 📚⚽️📚⚽️

Become a Uhuru Mentor and unlock the potential for transformative impact.

Hello everyone, I wish you a day filled with peace, kindness, and the realization that you have more to offer than you ever thought possible.
Your presence can shape the life of a child waiting for guidance.
Many of you may be familiar with the Boys & Girls Club, and Denzel Washington's story is a testament to the power of mentorship. His experience with a mentor from the Boys & Girls Club played a pivotal role in shaping his life and career, inspiring him to become a lifelong advocate for the organization.
Mentoring is a profound way to give back to the community, empowering you to make a lasting difference.
So, what's the significance of mentoring? It's about helping a child achieve their dreams, providing a positive role model, and fostering confidence, self-esteem, and a sense of belonging.
By being a mentor, you'll not only transform a life but also experience a sense of fulfillment you never thought possible.
Let's work together to give our kids the best possible start in life. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out.
I look forward to hearing your thoughts and comments.
Enjoy your day, and remember, you are worth more than you think.
Take time to appreciate what you have, and let's strive for positive change. You can do this! 📚⚽️⚽️📚GO Uhuru Football Academy
