About my venture
WAYFOUND MENTORING FOUNDATION UGANDA Started 2020
After being confused about how to change my financial status for some time, after taking part in rioting against bad leadership blaming them for my parent's poverty and the country's poverty. I realized that complaining doesn't work. Feeling pity for myself doesn't work. So last year on my 27th birthday, I promised myself to look for knowledge about how to acquire financial freedom amidst all this poverty sorrounding my country.
6 months of deep study and intense Reading and researching, I understood and believed that I can do It. And my deep passion has always been helping others feel better. So I decided that I will acquire financial freedom by helping others also do the same.
By introducing a growth mindset and positive attitude to my countrymen. By providing mental health services so that people stop feeling helpless and hopeless. Hence by reducing suicide cases due to depression and hopelessness.
