Makerere Yamba Development Initiative is anon –Government charity in Uganda duly registered. It started way back in 2015 as a voluntary initiative by 3 people who committed resources to help out two widows whose husbands passed on due to HIV but had 4 kids whose school was no more for some time.
The drive to help these widows with school fees came from a similar background these volunteers had passed through when growing up.
