Meet the person who is making this possible.
Aruho Onesmas.
The founder of the project is Aruho Onesmas, a native of Rukungiri district located 150km away from the project site. Growing up in a large, economically disadvantaged family of 11 children, Onesmas faced financial challenges throughout his education. To support himself, he engaged in various jobs, including selling matooke in markets and working as a motorcycle (boda-boda) rider.
Despite the hardships, Onesmas completed his high school education. However, due to a lack of funds, he was unable to continue his studies immediately after high school. Returning to work as a boda-boda rider, he eventually secured employment in hotels around Lake Bunyoyi. It was during this time that Onesmas decided to pursue further education, eventually earning a bachelor's degree from Kabale University.
In his leisure time, Onesmas observed children in the community involved in hazardous activities such as stone quarrying and sand mining, despite being underage. This realization prompted him to initiate a children's care project in January 2020, with the aim of protecting children from rights violations and providing them with access to education.
