Dr. Paul Muwanguzi Foundation was conceptualized in his memory after his passing in December 2022. Muwanguzi’s family and friends conceived the idea to celebrate his life, passion and great contribution to the community as well as act as a vehicle to carry his legacy forward. He always went above a call of duty to treat and serve his patients with passion. He was a husband, father, dentist and dedicated Christian. support us via https://paypal.me/muwanguzifund At the time of his passing, Dr. Muwanguzi was pursuing a Masters degree in Oral and Maxillofacial surgery. He had deep passion for children, women, the elderly and vulnerable communities. He always demonstrated this through his extraordinary care, compassion and service to these categories of people. He sought to make everyone he came across to be comfortable and supported those who could not help themselves. His kindness would make him work late in the night and in difficult circumstances. The Paul Muwanguzi Foundation was an idea mooted and adopted by a group of stakeholders who held Dr. Muwanguzi as a dear close friend, while he lived. Most of these stake holders either knew him as a study mate during his academic and medical career, as a work-mate during his time as medical Doctor or simply as a close relative at family level. Most importantly, all these friends and relatives had one common point of convergence – how best to keep some of Paul’s passions alive. Shortly after Dr. Muwanguzi’s send off in January, 2023, the team of friends simply couldn’t disband as they collectively felt there was the unfinished business of how best to start something that fosters the ideals that the late Dr. Paul Muwanguzi stood for in his short but industrious time. After a couple of brainstorming sessions, they zeroed down on two key areas that they felt could accurately define Dr. Paul’s aspirations. The mission Statement: Empower communities to achieve sustainable livelihoods through Education, Health, and socio-economic participation.Strategic Goal: Celebrate the life of Dr. Paul Muwanguzi and keep his legacy alive. Objectives: The foundation is in its early stages of formation and aims to achieve the following: 1. Increase access to quality education at different academic and professional levels. 2. Increase access to quality health care services in Buwaya village, Mayuge district. The overall goal: Celebrate the life of Paul and keep his memory alive. The Foundation will undertake different initiatives to keep Paul’s memory and legacy alive, including; annual memorial service and celebration events that will target friends, relatives, those with similar interests and well-wishers. These will be held in different places but mainly in Buwaya, Mayuge and Kampala, Uganda. The foundation will identify critical partners and stakeholders in the priority areas to pitch at the annual event for resources mobilization and implementation support. Memorial events will also motivate young people to pursue their goals just like the late Paul did and will be used to fundraise for the priorities of the foundation. Objective 1: Increase access to quality education at different levels. Considering that Paul was passionate about education and set a record of excellence in his village since primary school, the foundation will prioritize support to vulnerable children to access quality education, improve their performance, and complete their study programs. The foundation will start with children from Buwaya village vulnerable households to be selected based on the results of needs assessment, and later expand to other places after making tangible impact at village, parish and subcounty levels. Focus will initially be on career guidance, provision of scholastic materials and scholarships. Priority will be given to children who are bright but come from needy homes, and most improved children in class, each year picking on a new cohort of students in these categories and supporting them through various levels of study progression until completion. The foundation will develop partnerships with local and international schools and stakeholders for twinning and exchange learning opportunities. The foundation will build, furnish and stock a library and computer center in Buwaya village but open to community students from nearby schools and students studying in other schools who return to the village for holidays. This will facilitate access to quality reading materials and the latest information technology, and knowledge sharing amongst community students. The venue to host the library, and computer centre, will be well developed into a conducive study and learning environment where students can visit for personal study in order to improve grades from early stages. Governance: The Foundation will have staff and Board of Directors composed of executive and non-executive directors. The Board of Directors will have different committees. Committees will be assigned various roles including Finance and Audit, Resource Mobilization, Governance and Human Resource Management, Operations, Communication Information Technology, External Relations, etc. A lean and efficient staff and management structure will be established and approved by the Board of Directors, to run the day-to-day affairs of the Foundation. At start, volunteers are assisting with the set-up requirements. Once resources are available, full-time staff will be hired. In the interim, a team of sixteen (16) was selected to steer the set up and start-up of the Foundation, as a steering committee of volunteers. The committee met twice a month to discuss progress and plans while the general membership meets once every two months. This set up has been recently reviewed with the formal registration of a board of Directors of Eight (8) people. Structure A detailed implementation structure will be developed. The foundation will have members, staff and executive directors. It will also have none executive directors appointed on rotational basis based on their skillset, expertise and posture to provide oversight, overall policy guidance, and strategic direction of the Foundation, and review and approval of work plans and budgets of the foundation.
