THIS IS MY STORY.


My name is One Love, from Uganda; I was raised up by a single mom after I lost my father at the age of 9. We were born 8 and my mom suffered to educate us, feed us and care for us since she had no job.  

 We went through a lot of struggle to get education, food and basic needs. I was born from a Christian family and we believed God for daily bread, I only asked God to help us get education so that when things are okay I will be able to help orphans so that they don’t suffer like how I suffered. By the grace of God my aunt who stayed in the capital got for us a school that sponsored me and my sister.

 I was able to get education from senior one-senior four and the sponsorship ended from there  my mom had to struggle again to see that I get back to school, by the grace of God I studied up to the university and graduated with a degree in information technology in 2010.

I started providing small fees, scholastic materials and basic needs to the orphans and youths while I was in secondary school I used to use the little pocket money my mom used to give me to support two orphans in my village. I started using my pocket money to at least buy a book and a pen to 3 children and pay fees of 10,000/= to one or two orphans every term. While at Makerere University I used my pocket money to pay fees for 3 orphans in secondary school and I kept with this heart until I finished her studies in 2010 and got a job in 2011.

Am  now Sponsoring  26  orphans from my small monthly earning, and provides scholastic materials and basic needs to 20 orphans I have lobbied for support from Friends and family members.   My 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.
 One love with her kids she sponsors and looks after.







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, so in started a small organization  called Rwenzori Abstinence and scripture union yoth network to bring all the orphans together  Facebook link: https://www.facebook.com/RwenzoriAbstinanceAndScriptureUnionYouthNetwork/info?tab=page_info , Web Site: www.rasyn.org, (its off now, due to technical problems it will be on very soon) and started a soccer academy through soccer we preach the gospel, encourage abstinence , keep youths health, encourage love, care, support, hope  and discourage pity, regrets and discrimination. Facebook link:  https://www.facebook.com/groups/326445144221200/?fref=ts

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.
