Back ground  of  RASYN.

Rwenzori abstinence and scripture union youth network (RASYN) is a community based organization working in the districts of Kyenjojo and Kabarole.  It was founded by Miss Amanya Sheila (Vision Bearer) after the Lord spoke to her in 2011 to share the message of hope to the youths who were hopeless and weary in Kyenjojo and Kabarole districts in Western Uganda.

 RASYN was founded in 2012 with an aim of preaching the gospel of Lord Jesus and singing and preaching abstinence to the youths in and out schools to reduce the spread of HIV/AIDS and other STD’s.

Also to provide entrepreneurial skills to the youths as a way of fighting poverty amongst the youths and provide school fees, scholastic materials and basic needs to the youths so that they are not pushed bank into Sex. RASYN is non -Governmental organization, non-political and non-dominion organization.

RAYSN operates in Kabarole and Kyenjojo Districts and works with higher learning institutions, secondary, primary schools.

 Orphans and youths are supported with scholastic materials and basic needs, sponsored and those who dropped are trained in entrepreneurship skills. The Vision bearer of RASYN started providing fees, scholastic materials and basic needs to the orphans and youths while she was in secondary school. She started using her pocket money to at least buy a book and a pen to 3 children and pay fees of 10000/= to one orphan every term. While at Makerere University she used her pocket money to pay fees for 3 orphans in secondary school and she kept with this heart until she finished her studies in 2010 and got a job in 2011.

The vision Bearer is now Sponsoring 10 orphans from her monthly earning, and provides scholastic materials and basic needs to 20 orphans the vision Bearer lobbied for support from Friends and family members.  Her best friend is now paying fees of four orphans and my sister to pays fees for 2 orphans and provides basic needs for 5 orphans.

 Speaking without action is a bad. Telling a youth to abstain from SEX and evil things without solving the problem that forces Him /her into sex is like writing on water RASYN is using both words and actions to see a better and happy youth and orphan. Youths need training, knowledge and  skills in entrepreneurship and  developmental ideas , they need to be supported with fees and scholastic materials so that they will not look for money from men and women through sex and this shall  go hand in hand with abstinence hence reduction of HIV/AIDS Spread.
