What Our Beneficiaries Say

Nantongo Sarah

Smallholder Farmer, Mityana

Before joining Maanyi’s Green Harvest Initiative, my farm struggled with poor yields due to soil depletion. Through their training, I learned regenerative farming techniques that have transformed my land. Now, I grow enough food for my family and sell the surplus for income. Maanyi has given me the skills to farm sustainably and secure my children’s future.

Ssewanyana Daniel

Youth Entrepreneur, Butambala

Starting a business seemed impossible until I joined Maanyi’s Women’s Enterprise Hub. I received business training, mentorship, and access to a startup grant. Today, I run a thriving organic soap business that employs other young people in my community. Maanyi didn’t just teach me business skills; they gave me hope and a future.

Nabukalu Rebecca

Climate Change Advocate, Luweero

I have always been passionate about environmental conservation, but I lacked the resources to make a real impact. Through Maanyi’s Eco-Start Incubator, I developed my green startup, which recycles plastic waste into eco-friendly paving blocks. With their support, I am creating jobs and making my community cleaner. Maanyi is truly shaping a greener Uganda!
