Our CEO, Jacqueline Asiimwe, recently reflected on a powerful day that brought the spirit of African generosity to life. During a board meeting at Conservation Through Public Health, she witnessed generosity not as theory, but as presence, people showing up with their time, wisdom, and unwavering commitment to service.
