Sire Simon Loduk is a fashion designer by profession and a Kuonyesha Art Fund 2021 partner. In episode 1, season 9 of the comm-UNITY! Podcast series, he discusses how fashion changed his life and inspired him to give back to his community. Simon attributes his entire success to his community, particularly the encouragement to return to and further his education at a technical institute for fashion design.
He compares his product's popularity in his community to rats that have smelt river fish. He says they absolutely adore his products and that he is responsible for launching the majority of Kaabong's fashion designers' careers. In this episode, Simon gushes about his love for his community and their unwavering support for his career. He says this is one of the reasons he is always giving back through various skill training projects so that other people can get the experience he would not have gotten if his community had not consistently and timely supported him.
Sharing is caring for Simon, and his faith remains a strong foundation for him when it comes to the principles he follows when it comes to giving. He says;
"Generosity is the heart of God, not a human heart." If you put on a man's heart, you can never be generous."
"I am a living example of how generosity releases God's hand to move in someone's life! My community is my family!"
