Description
I’m Ibrahim Menya, 33years of age from a family of 5 born and raised in Uganda 🇺🇬 the Pearl of Africa.
I’m a graduate who studied a bachelors degree in business administration specialized in marketing.
Apparently I’m working as a tourist and safari driver guide and founder of our community foundation.
I lost my father in 2000 at the age of 10 and this left me with no hope of having no further education as my father didn’t have a proper source of income since he was a peasant farmer. My mother sells bananas and this has always been her from the Time I was born. Life became very difficult for her to look after us as she didn’t get much to support us at school.
In 2004, at our primary school , we got a chance to have an internee from Notre Dame university in the US called Ben Wilson who came as Mathematics teacher, because he got to know about my family and I was the best at his subject, he managed to get me a sponsor on his return to the US who supported me with my education fees to some level because I could miss classes for having no books, and also failing to pay school fees. This prompted me to work so hard later that I had to pay for my university.
When I started working as a safari guide, we could come across so many kids living the same life I lived, walking long distances bare footed to school, staying hungry during school time, having no school materials like books and pens.
This touched me a lot and thought of starting up an organization, its' name means “ Rise” and the main purpose is to help improve and support the lives of people especially school going children.

Aide
We would like to have all kinds of help needed to gear up our community schools with necessary skills like reading , teaching, art , sports and games, health among others as most teachers here take on classes in our local language which doesn’t help children much since they’re examined in English.
