Newsletter January 2025

As we begin 2025, we celebrate the remarkable achievements of KRC-Uganda in empowering communities and transforming lives. Over the past year, we’ve seen youth in the Rwenzori region redefine
agriculture, turning it into a tool for economic transformation. Stories like that of Alex Mubangizi, who
transitioned from a boda-boda rider to a thriving beekeeper employing others, illustrate the life-changing
power of determination and targeted support.

In Kyaka II Refugee Settlement, the Kulea Watoto Project enabled Ahmed Ndikumasabo and his peers to
launch a successful tailoring business. With start-up kits, training, and teamwork, they turned adversity
into opportunity, providing for their families and building a brighter future.

Our nutrition and food security initiatives continue to make a significant impact. School gardens in the
Tooro region now provide nutrient-rich crops for pupils, addressing malnutrition while teaching
sustainable farming practices. Similarly, collaborations in the vanilla sector are opening doors for
farmers in Kasese and Bundibugyo to access premium markets and training, ensuring Uganda’s vanilla
competes globally.

In refugee settlements, we’ve combined immediate relief with long-term solutions, from distributing
rabbits to improve nutrition in Kyaka II to equipping caregivers in Rhino Camp with stress management
tools. These interventions demonstrate our commitment to fostering resilience and dignity in every
community we serve.

The stories of 2024 remind us that collaboration, innovation, and dedication drive transformative change.
As we look to 2025, we are inspired to continue building a Uganda where everyone has the opportunity to thrive. Together, let’s make this a year of impact and growth
