comm-UNITY! | Season 15 | Episode 1 | Generosity That Holds
Recorded at the 6th edition of the gathering of Givers at Ndere Centre in Uganda, this episode marks the beginning of a series hosted by CivLegacy Foundation in partnership with the Uganda National NGO Forum and the Media Challenge Initiative (MCI).
The Comm_UNITY Podcast was created to document, spotlight, and celebrate African generosity, telling the stories behind the giving, and highlighting how philanthropy rooted in empathy and community creates lasting impact.
In this episode, host Jacqueline Asiimwe sits down with Barbara Masibo, Director of Ziingo Women &Children Initiative, an organisation committed to defending the rights of women and children in disadvantaged communities.
Barbara shares the moment that shaped her journey in giving, a scholarship that allowed her sister to complete her education. From that experience grew a deep commitment to ensuring other children have access to opportunity.
Reflecting on the realities of building and sustaining an NGO, she reminds us: “Everyone has something to give no matter how small. Even a smile or a listening ear can change a life.”
🎧 Tune in for an honest conversation about generosity that stays and the quiet acts of giving that sustain communities for generations.
