Hello everyone,

As many of you know, the board decided to take a extended break to grieve the loss of our founder, Elizabeth Nabeta, as well as re-evaluate the organization's next steps. Elizabeth started UANMP because she wanted to make a positive change in the village where she was raised and the board is committed to continuing Elizabeth's good works. Elizabeth's daughter, Vivian, is now our new board chair and will be overseeing UANMP's activities. Over the next few months you'll be learning more about her and the projects (both new and old) that we are undertaking.

One project that we are very excited to share with you is our new look. Our logo is inspired by Elizabeth and our new website will be a one stop shop for all things UANMP.

Thank you all for your continued support and we are looking forward to creating a brighter future for Nakuwadde with you.
