comm-UNITY! | Season 15 | Episode 2 | Generosity That Carries Hope
Welcome to another episode of the comm-UNITY! Podcast, a space where we document, spotlight, and celebrate African generosity and the stories behind it. In this special live series recorded at the 6th edition of the Gathering of Givers at Ndere Centre in Uganda, hosted by CivLegacy Foundation in partnership with the Uganda National NGO Forum and the Media Challenge Initiative (MCI), we continue exploring the theme: “Generosity that Serves, Stays, and Sustains.”
In this episode, host Jacqueline Asiimwesits down with Ethan Mosolini to reflect on a deeply personal moment that shaped his journey as a giver.
At just 17 years old, following the passing of his father, it was the generosity of his late father’s friends who raised funds for his A-Level education. What may have seemed like a small act to them became a life-altering turning point for Ethan, setting him on a path of giving forward and becoming what he calls a “merchant of hope.”
As Ethan shares, “When you give, you inspire that person to become a giver and that creates a ripple effect.”
Together, Ethan and Jacqueline explore the power of hope not just as a feeling, but as a seed. A seed that, when plantedthrough generosity, grows into resilience, opportunity, and transformation.
Join us as we hear from givers, reflect on the staying power of generosity, and discover how hope sustains communities.
