SUBI FOUNDATION: a story of hope
In December 2021, Lisa Holliday had one overarching desire: to see Ugandan women & children have a better life. Having been married to Ugandan-native Geofrey Mukabire for 10 years, Lisa's heart was wholly invested in the success of Ugandans. And being a long-time teacher, Lisa believed that a successful, better life would come through education.
"Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world." -Nelson Mandela
But there was one glaring problem: NO SCHOOLS!
Often, children simply meet under a tree to have lessons.
Other times, they sit on rough-hewn benches under a rickety roof.
There are few, if any, school supplies. Teachers might have a chalkboard,
but no chalk with which to write.
And that's IF the children can even afford the tuition to attend.
So Lisa and Geofrey decided to do something about it! Realizing that, all too often, women (who themselves received no education) are left to raise and educate the children in the villages, Subi Foundation was organized with several projects aimed at providing educational resources for both women and children. And since education is rarely successful when children have poor health, Subi Foundation also is working to provide hygiene resources that will, in turn, increase children's health.
Subi Foundation is out to change the world. Maybe not the whole world, not all at once. But educational resources--sewing machines, school supplies, food, clean water, a primary school--will change the world for literally hundreds of people every year! We are starting small, taking baby steps, but Subi Foundation is determined to provide education for women and children in Uganda.
So be a part of something that will actually change the world!
