USEF Charity Run Raises Support for Girls’ Education in Terego

The Uriama Seff Empowerment Foundation (USEF), in partnership with Peace for Women-West Nile and other stakeholders, has held the third edition of its annual charity run at Wandi Primary School in Terego District to raise funds for girls’ education.

The event featured 5-kilometre and 10-kilometre races, health services, aerobics and community sensitisation activities focused on education, gender-based violence and community wellbeing.

According to USEF Executive Director Ben Anguma, the initiative started in 2024 after the organisation identified low access to secondary education among girls in Terego. The first two editions supported 28 vulnerable girls to access secondary education.

Anguma said USEF is targeting Shs18 million this year, with the aim of increasing the number of beneficiaries to 42 girls.

Peace for Women-West Nile Executive Director Abaru Peace said gender-based violence contributes to school dropout, teenage pregnancy and early marriage. She pledged to work with communities to address these challenges and encourage families to keep girls in school.

Terego District officials also supported the initiative, calling for greater parental support, prevention of early marriage and changes in community attitudes towards girls’ education. They also expressed concern over boys dropping out of school and becoming involved in drug abuse.

The event attracted local leaders, teachers, health workers, civil society organisations, residents and supporters from across the region. The district health team provided medical and first-aid services, while participants took part in aerobics and other physical activities.

USEF said poverty and cultural attitudes that favour educating boys continue to prevent some girls from staying in school. Communications Secretary for USEF Ringua Sabino said the foundation works with students, young people and community leaders to promote education.

Beneficiaries also participated in the run with One beneficiary saying that USEF’s support had enabled her to remain in school and pursue her dream of becoming a surgeon.

Queen Hadijja Juma, who participated in the run, said her decision was inspired by her own experience with education sponsorship. She said the support she once received showed her the importance of helping vulnerable girls and called on people in West Nile and abroad to contribute to the cause.

Participant Innocent Amadrile also said that taking part in the run gave him an opportunity to contribute to the education and protection of girls, urging the community to support similar initiatives.

The charity run has grown over the years beyond a sporting event into a platform for fundraising, community mobilisation and advocacy for girls’ education. The foundation is also working on a sustainability model to help beneficiary families improve their incomes and eventually support other vulnerable families.

With a target of Shs18 million, organisers hope to sustain existing beneficiaries and expand support to more girls.

The third Edition of the USEF Charity run brought together sport, fundraising, health awareness and advocacy under one cause — keeping the girl child in school and for Running for the Girl Child.

The Uriama Seff Empowerment Foundation (USEFF) is preparing for this year’s Charity Run scheduled for August 22 at Wandi Primary School grounds in Katrini Sub-county, Terego District, with the aim of raising funds to keep vulnerable girls in school.


The idea behind the charity run started in 2023 after individuals now working at USEFF came across the story of a 13-year-old girl who had dropped out of school and was selling charcoal at Ocodri Market to raise money for scholastic materials. The girl had lost both parents and was living with her grandmother.


After supporting the girl to return to school, USEFF decided to look deeper into the challenges facing children in the community. A study carried out in government-aided secondary schools in Terego District showed that only seven percent of girls were joining secondary school compared to 13 percent of boys.


This pushed the foundation to start the charity run as a way of mobilising support for vulnerable girls. Through the first and second editions, USEFF has supported 28 girls who are currently studying at Ariape Secondary School.


This year’s run aims to keep the 28 girls in school and add another 14, bringing the total number of supported girls to 42. The foundation estimates it needs Shs18 million to support the girls for a full year.


Ringua Sabino the acting Communications person on the organizing committee for the Charity run said the charity run is not only about raising money but also creating awareness about teenage pregnancy, school dropout, and the importance of keeping children in school.


“Strong mothers raise strong boys and girls who can build a responsible nation. We need to empower these children because they are the future of our communities,” Bosco said.


USEFF raises funds through the sale of charity running kits, with each kit bought contributing towards supporting the education of vulnerable girls. The kits are available through different points in the community, including Peace for Women a community based organization and also official partner for this year's edition.


The foundation selects beneficiaries through a careful process where headteachers identify vulnerable girls, with recommendations endorsed by local leaders.
The shortlisted girls are then visited at home and interviewed with support from education and community development officials to ensure those selected truly need the support.


The programme mainly supports vulnerable and talented girls transitioning from primary to secondary school, with the long-term goal of helping them complete O-Level education and possibly continue to A-Level in the future.


Besides supporting the girls directly, USEFF is also helping families through cocoa plantation projects so that parents can have a source of income to support their children in the long run.


Ahead of the charity run, the foundation has organised community meetings in Wandi, Olua, and Aramua in Katrini Sub-county to sensitise residents about school dropout, teenage pregnancy, and the need to support children’s education.


The event has received support from local leaders and security authorities, with preparations already underway. USEFF says about 20 percent of previous participants have been local leaders showing their commitment to the cause.


The foundation, which started operating in Arua City and is now also active in Terego District, says the charity run has helped highlight challenges affecting children, including early pregnancies, gender-based violence, and family conflicts.


USEFF’s target is to see more girls complete school, with a goal of increasing the number of girls completing education in Terego District to 80 percent by 2030.

Hon. Marshall Alenyoo, the Member of Parliament for Jonam county, is steadily establishing himself as a thoughtful and committed voice in the 12th Parliament. From the very beginning of his tenure, he has demonstrated a clear resolve to champion the interests and well-being of the people who entrusted him with their mandate.


For many years, the Jonam community has faced serious and deeply rooted challenges. Among the most pressing are the Palango land-grabbing dispute and the recently adopted fisheries policies, both of which have had far-reaching consequences for livelihoods, household incomes, and the broader socio-economic fabric of the region. Rather than remain silent, Hon. Marshall Alenyoo has taken these concerns to the floor of Parliament, ensuring they receive the attention and consideration they deserve.


His leadership reflects a simple but powerful principle, meaningful representation goes beyond campaign promises, it demands action. By bringing these critical issues before Parliament, he has shown a willingness to confront difficult realities and advocate for practical solutions. Many now believe that, given the necessary time and institutional support, Hon. Marshall Alenyoo will help turn the long held aspirations of the Jonam people into lasting progress, safeguarding community interests, restoring hope, and laying the groundwork for sustainable development.

Bloc 1 : Développement personnel & Honnêteté des leaders.

🎤 Script 1 : L’honnêteté, la base de tout leadership

Un leader sans honnêteté, c’est comme une maison sans fondation : tout paraît solide, mais au premier tremblement, tout s’écroule.
L’honnêteté, ce n’est pas seulement dire la vérité aux autres, c’est d’abord se dire la vérité à soi-même. Beaucoup de personnes veulent diriger, influencer, inspirer, mais elles fuient la vérité sur leurs propres faiblesses.
Un vrai leader reconnaît ses erreurs, apprend de ses échecs et transforme ses faiblesses en force. Voilà pourquoi le développement personnel commence par une seule chose : être vrai.

WEST NILE CIVIL SOCIETY NETWORK LAUNCHES CITIZEN SERVICE DELIVERY ASPIRATIONS INITIATIVE.

By Martin A

The West Nile Civil Society Network (WESCINET) has officially launched the West Nile Sub-Regional Citizen’s Service Delivery Aspirations Project, a transformative initiative designed to strengthen grassroots social accountability and promote inclusive development across the region.The launch event, held at Blue Cuts Motel in Koboko District, brought together participants and stakeholders from Maracha and Yumbe Districts. The gathering served as a platform to discuss shared aspirations, evaluate service delivery gaps, and explore ways to empower citizens in demanding transparency and good governance.

According to Mr. Feni Twaib, the Chief Executive Officer of WECISNET, the organization remains committed to “addressing key issues that hinder the socio-economic development of the West Nile region.” He emphasized that civil society has a vital role to play in ensuring that citizens’ voices are heard and their needs reflected in policy and service delivery.

Ms. Juliet Akello, the Senior Programme Associate at the Uganda National NGO Forum, urged local leaders and stakeholders to “actively implement the project’s objectives to achieve its intended impact.” She reiterated the importance of collaboration between citizens, government institutions, and development partners to ensure accountability at all levels.

Representing the citizens of West Nile, Ms. Florence Amaguru expressed optimism about the initiative, noting that “the community expects improved governance, transparency, and accountability from their leaders following the launch of this project.”

Meanwhile, Mr. Stephen Obitrem, the LC5 Chairperson of Maracha District, emphasized that “public demand for accountability is essential in rebuilding trust between leaders and citizens, which ultimately enhances service delivery and integrity.”

Speaking at the event, Mr. Vuyaya Vuni Mathew, the Deputy Resident District Commissioner for Yumbe District, called upon all stakeholders to “embrace this civic engagement initiative not just institutionally, but also at an individual level, to create a culture of responsibility and ownership.”

Recent statistics indicate that service delivery in the West Nile sub-region remains a mix of progress and persistent challenges. While improvements have been seen in sectors such as education, health, and infrastructure, citizens continue to aspire for better quality, accessibility, and consistency—often constrained by limited funding, inadequate resources, and management inefficiencies.

As WECISNET’s new project takes root, stakeholders remain hopeful that this collaborative approach will foster a stronger sense of community participation and drive sustainable development across the West Nile sub-region.
