WORD FROM VISION BEARER MISS AMANYA SHEILLA

I was raised by by a single Mother and I lived in village of Munjeru,  Kyenjojo District of Western Uganda ,since I was 14 and every time I got holidays I could spend them in village, during my stay in village, I witnessed with my eyes how youths and children were neglected , were mistreated in polygamous families by step parents and many ran away from their homes, prostitution was high , many children starved of hunger, had no clothes , dying of HIV , youths took sex as a game and a competition and HIV was so high, girls were having babies at an age of 14,  no one cared for them.  Boys were competing to see who sleeps with many girls and he would be respected in the village, those with parents never had time for their children.

Parents were  Drunkards , orphans were homeless and no one cared,  I realized that many orphans were neither receiving a proper education nor the love and guidance of a parent, leader, neighbor or a teacher. I was moved to, act, sacrifice and do more and more to save the young generation which was decaying.
This is when I formed RASYN to empower vulnerable children, orphans and youths, “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 having prostitution and stealing is like writing on water”. Says Sheila. We are using both words and actions to see a better and happy orphan and underprivileged children gain a basic education and become productive members of society and the country.
At 27 Sheila  Amanya  has  foregone all the nice things for the sake of orphans. I kept my love, care and support of the orphans since I was a young girl. As  a youth I turned down all the good life  to support the children ,I have sacrificed my time, money, home and love to serve orphans.  I  have not despised any work  for the sake of raising money to support the orphans and on my own i sponsor over 30 children. I am hard working, I believe in herself and I keep my word, I have made so many sacrifices because  God is with me and i will not give up until the vision is accomplished in Jesus name.
