"I have been helped many times but there is this one time that stood out for me"- Abbo Hope says. 


I remember I was on my S.6 vacation, I had just been gifted a new phone, it meant everything to me😂

So some night while traveling with a lot of shopping bags with my little sister, my phone fell in the taxi and I didn't realize this till I reached home you can imagine the shock I had. I wept, I panicked and kept trying to call my phone but no answer. I remember my sister telling me they don't cry over stolen phones but it was my first experience I slept with a broken heart and I didn't want to ever wake up.

But fortunately for me, the lady who picked up my phone from the taxi was a Christian going to Pastor Tom's church, so she called back and she gave me details on how to pick up my phone and didn't even ask for a reward. To me that day I met one of the kindest people in this world

We are excited to kick off The Power of Compassion story series with Charles Obuk. We will feature 40 stories for 40 days in celebration of our fourth anniversary this September, these stories are meant to encourage people from all social spaces to embrace the spirit of generosity and to celebrate the heroes that selflessly make a difference in the lives of others. Charles Obuk in his own words, be inspired. Compassion and kindness are the things that changed my entire world"- says Charles Obuk. Growing up as a child, I was fed compassion and kindness by those who cared to give them to me.  My mother had a very unsuccessful relationship with my dad, with whom she had two children - I and my elder sister.  However, they had split up before I was born in 1997. It was only four years when she moved into a new relationship and left us in the custody of her brother, Mr. Olung David (R.I.P).  This was the beginning of my encounter with compassion and kindness firsthand.  At

Every action you take impacts the lives of others around you , The question is, Are you aware of your impact?   Refugees are very amazing people. Like you, they need love, respect, equal opportunities and dignity. It is not their desire to leave their home countries. They have just lost everything and all they want is starting a new chapter of their lives.  For many, it is never easy. We crown 2020 with a very inspirational Story from Divine Irakoze, a refugee from Burundi living in Malawi. When we heard her story, we imagined the tones of unheard refugee stories  from all over the continent that need to be told.  How would you describe yourself? My name is Divine Irakoze.

  💕- STAY MENTALLY HEALTHY- 💕 The Covid- 19 pandemic has been a daily talk for the past couple of months, and we could not let this period pass by without sharing lock down stories from people all over the world.  From us to you we say : " your story matters and at such a time when countless people seem hopeless, it has the ability to speak life to them. Cast a light with your story. One of our friends Hana Fa dil from Sudan shares with us her lock down story.                                                 I am the kind of person that loves everything to go as planned. When we registered the first case of covid -19 in Sudan,  I got into a panic attack. I was so upset that all my plans were going to be put on a stand still to a time I was uncertain of. I became so obsessed with reading everything about the virus, the number of confirmed cases, death tolls, a vaccine discovery, the effects the lock-down was having on other people, my anxiety levels were on the rise.
