Today we said bye to Lindzy Byamugisha, who's been the fulcrum of Boundless Minds work over the last 4yrs.
Ironically, she'd applied to join as a mentee & got rejected. A yr later, joined the team & steered our Programmes to reach over 200mentors & 5000 mentees.
We are awed and owed!

My journey at Boundless Minds for the past 4 years has been incredible, to say the least.

I have grown, I have learnt and I have served under the leadership of Bibi Rukwengye

Though my journey as Soft Skilling Lead has come to an end, I am forever grateful for believing in me.

Can you imagine that it only takes 100k per term to sponsor a Primary Seven teenage mother or adolescent girl studying in Karamoja?

Last year we were able to sponsor as many as 50 girls. This year we go harderrrrr. Would you like to sponsor a girl? #Kikumi #AfricaEducatesHer

It's been great connecting with young people across the continent at the #YouthConnektAfrica2023

Ready for Day 2 of #YouthConnektAfrica2023 at Kenyatta International Convention Centre together with youth across the African continent.

Public speaking has become second nature to me. I would love to thank Lindzy Byamugisha and Bibi Rukwengye for being great mentors on this journey. Boundless Minds mentorship program is an opportunity every young adult should experience. The results are phenomenal.

As a civic space player, I have just concluded a 3 day training by African Institute for Investigative Journalism on investigating and reporting on the civic space in Uganda.
I have gotten insights on how to leverage technology & use my platforms to tell stories that matter. Solomon Serwanjja, Rahim Nwali

The power of mentorship

Our soft skilling lead Lindzy Byamugisha carried out a career clinic yesterday at KYAMBOGO UNIVERSITY .

Lyndzy highlighted the 21st century skills that the students ought to know as they prepare themselves for the world of work.

Thank you Coca-Cola Beverages Uganda for the support.

This morning I walked with Lindzy Byamugisha

We talked about the values that guide our lives, creating healthy boundaries, and our bucket lists. We both want to sky dive!

We also spoke about brokenness and healing and how broken crayons can still color.

We bumped into a happy…

Out of Sight gives you the Ugandan context of how some of our primary boarding schools are run behind the scenes. It is about the author’s experience in primary boarding school and their views on the Ugandan education and cultural system.
