NCIYE

Nabweru Community Initiative For Youth Empowerment ltd (NCIYE) is A Non-Governmental Organization operating at grass root levels. The organization was founded by University Graduates passionate about giving back to the communities where they are born and grew up from as our Corporate Social responsibility as well as uplifting the wellbeing of the communities. Having grown up in a remote environment where we shared water with animals, elder men raped young girls, HIV/AIDS which is still rampant has left many orphans, education was poor, forced marriages and a lot of unemployment among the youths. It upon this background that we thought it to establish a NON-Governmental Organization which we started in 2022 and it was legally registered as a non-governmental organization, under NGO Board statute of 1989, with reg: 80020003555453. For the past years, the organization operated in Wakiso District Central Uganda under five thematic areas such as, Youth Advocacy, Water and Sanitation, HIV/AIDS, Children/Orphans and Entrepreneurship education, climate change ,Agriculture. <br>Nabweru Community Initiative For Youth Empowerment ltd fundamental strategy is to empower our communities to take up charge of their own development. NCIYE serves in Wakiso District with Development Programmes. Over 1,000 community members have benefited from NCIYE Programs. NCIYE has diverse membership, youths, illiterates, un schooled, married and un married those with dependants and those without, administrators, locals from all sorts of religious background. All working within harmony for a common purpose to uplift their living standards. <br>Our organizational skills, accurate record keeping, ability to administer and address the concerned target youths’ groups, we have carried sensitization drives on HIV/AIDS awareness among the Youths and the community at large and we have created up peer to peer educators through youth volunteering. We have carried out numerous Youths seminars and workshops on income generating activities like tailoring training, black smith ( Crafts and shoes works) ,builders, candle making ,soap making, mechanics, art and craft, carpentry, Brick laying concrete and practice, gardening skills and computer trainings, elevation for success in both male and female dominated activities has made us a leading light for other similar groups that wish to be given accompaniment and capacity to address issues Health thematic areas we handle things like HIV/AIDS general awareness: <br>Youths The operations of the organization are reflected in the fields of creating HIV/AIDS awareness,COVID19 Recovery programs, reproductive health and provision of prevention materials to the youth majorly those above 20years of age. Provision of safe water among others, with particular attention to people aged 10-45 years. We do consoling, testing and critically look at hard to tackle cases for referral. It’s also our culture at (NCIYE) that peer educators in all the intervention thematic areas are priority; this keeps us in cycle of training for a better results. <br>Advocacy for child protection, according to the statistics from our local authorities, over 50% of the children in the district are denied access to education, food, and housing and among others. These as a result of not only the government being not in position to consider them in their planning strategies, but also the parents not being in position of supporting them due unemployment levels in the district. Some children are neglected because of the infected with HIV/AIDS and this really tremendously affected the future generation in our area. <br>Capacity building, among the youths in the areas of entrepreneurship and financial literacy Service delivery advocacy and accessibility: In this thematic area, we all aim at reaching out to the authorities and other international bodies to see that the people of Kiboga district are accessed with safe water and which is sustainable all the time. <br>Entrepreneurship Skills <br>We do conduct with a specific aim of providing entrepreneurial skills to youths, the motivational, innovative, and creative and start up training workshops. The youths were equipped with necessary skills on how to start up income generating activities like tailoring, art and craft, soap and candle making, production of sanitary pads for both girls and women and paper bags making among others. <br>All the above intervention are constantly implemented at NCIYE and since 2019, we have been providing all the above services to the communities in Wakiso, so far this our 5year with the versatile experience addressing these issues. <br>

Sundy I went to the Building Up Lives Foundation for food.. <br>I appreciate everyone who volunteers.. <br><br>This is not for u.. <br>This foundation is supposed to be a non profit organization.. but makes a big deal about the ppl coming for help to donate.. and blast it all on their page.. annoying and very unprofessional.. To see some one donate and get yelled at like a child from the organizer about grabbing a mask and putting money in the donation thing that they put there for donations.. she was put on "time out" and let others go in front of her.. she asked when she can go in and a different woman comes out pulls her to the side an pretty much told her she cant get food for not listening to rules... and she donated... <br><br>Its extremely sad that this is supposed to be a non profit and all they do is mistreat the ppl they say their helping.. blast that all these ppl came and took and no one donations money.. then to accused the woman of stealing on social media to make herself look good and get praise and ppl giving their ahh.. wow ppl can be so ungrateful.. their rude and crazy.. I'm not saying no crazy ppl or angry ppl come but u cant treat EVERYONE that way.. u should be humble and greet the less fortunate with respect... and that's how respect does both ways.. no one should have to endure being treated like a child just for help.. <br><br>I've spent my life pretty much going to food pantries for help and NEVER, NEVER!! once in my life have I seen ppl coming for help and being mistreated.. talked about online by others.. asking the ppl they help to bring donations... <br><br>This foundation is extremely unprofessional and I will be finding another food pantry that doesnt act like were in a jail to get help.. one that wont talk about the ppl they help.. <br><br>I will be finding a way for report this behavior and asking for money to get food to the irs.. julie she go to anger management and go to school for hospitality cuz she thinks yell at adults is okay.. I'm not the first to see it.. even to have another volunteer tell to not say anything on my mind or I cant get food.. <br><br>I was so appalled.. this is why I never go HERE for help.. to get help I have to submit to being treated like a child.. I will be going to Emanuel house food bank and the oasis church food bank or any other food bank out there.. atleast I'll be treated with respect and not being yelled at like a child.
