Description & Show Notes

There are some pretty amazing people in the world, using their own life story to support the one from others being a successful one. One of these people is Maggy's guest of the SANUSPLANET Podcast in today's episode.
Get to know the co-founder Elizabeth Mbambu and her big WHY to create this beautiful organization.

The non-profit organization Skills Rwenzori Centrum Limited has been dedicated since 2019 to address child marriage, young motherhood, and poverty in Uganda’s Rwenzori region. Their tireless commitment to these topics is reflected in their comprehensive approach, which includes vocational training, education, and community support. Through initiatives such as weaving, creating plastic mosaics, sewing, and crocheting, the Skills Rwenzori Centrum provides young mothers and school dropouts with practical skills that not only offer an alternative source of income but also pave the way to break the cycle of poverty within their families. As poverty in families is reduced, parents can also afford to finance their children's education. Additionally, the products made from natural materials, such as banana leaves, contribute to reducing plastic waste and raise awareness about this issue.
