What does it take to sustain impact over 15 years and scale it even further? Yesterday, we hosted a #StrategicBreakfast Meeting, bringing together partners and supporters for a moment of reflection, dialogue, and forward thinking. As we look back on a 17-year journey of working alongside communities, we recognize that progress of this nature is never achieved alone. It is shaped through partnership, shared learning, and a collective commitment to long-term impact. The conversations in the room were thoughtful and energizing, grounded in experience, but focused on what more can be done to strengthen and expand this work in the years ahead. We were especially encouraged by the willingness to engage deeply, to ask critical questions, and to contribute ideas that will help refine @MEMPROWUganda next phase. To everyone who joined us, we extend our sincere gratitude. Your partnership continues to play a vital role in advancing this mission. As we look ahead, we remain committed to building scalable, community-driven solutions and to working with partners who are equally committed to sustainable, measurable impact. We welcome continued conversations with those interested in supporting and investing in this next chapter. #MEMPROWNewStrategy #StrategicPartnerships #CommunityImpact #SustainableDevelopment #17YearsOfImpact @ajws @CivsourceAfrica @woman_kind @WorldBankAfrica @GirlsFirstFund @SwedeninUG @NLinUganda @UAFAfrica @CAREUganda @actionaiduganda

For many girls in our community, unreliable electricity is not an inconvenience , it is a barrier to learning. When power cuts happen, homework is delayed, revision time is shortened, and confidence slowly erodes. Through the generous support of @tassug01, we have distributed solar lighting kits to girls facing persistent power instability at home. Reliable solar lighting means: • Safe and consistent study time • Improved assignment completion • Reduced dependence on unsafe or costly lighting sources • Greater academic focus and performance #EnergyPoverty quietly disrupts education, and it affects girls disproportionately. By addressing this barrier directly, we are protecting school retention and strengthening educational outcomes. Access to clean energy is not just an environmental issue. It is an education equity issue.Because sometimes, empowerment begins with light. #GirlsEducation #EnergyAccess #EducationEquity #ClimateAndGender #CommunityImpact

I like growth and love to challenge my brain’s thinking. The last six months taught me so much; working with communities, young people & very informative colleagues @MEMPROWUganda turning ideas into stories, booklets & videos that empower and inspire. linkedin.com/posts/katho-sh…

Day 2 of the training was so impactful. We began the day with a thought provoking session titled “In Her Shoes,” where we read real, relatable stories of violence faced by women and girls that are shaped by both social and cultural norms. These stories reflected the painful realities that many live through daily and reminded us as advocates, of our role in ending gender based violence including child marriage, which remains one of the forms of violence. The afternoon session was an engaging session on use of media for advocacy and mobilization, highlighting how powerful storytelling, journalism and social media can be in shifting mindsets and driving community action. Every session and story reminded us that advocacy begins with empathy and to truly make change, we must tell these stories with courage and authenticity. #EndChildMarriage #StopGBV @GirlsFirstFund

The @SoSurePads team welcomed our representatives and those from @MEMPROWUganda for a detailed tour of their offices. We got to meet the team behind their reusable pads and learn more about their enterprise. The visit also included discussions on empowering young women and girls, both in and out of school. We focused on menstrual health education and the positive impact of collaborations like ours on empowering girls. #Donate4Pads #GNTrybeBraveGirlsFestival
