FRANK

Kabale South is in western Uganda and is a community that comprises of several secondary schools, two universities, a regional prison, a public market and numerous makeshift drinking joints where many youth waste their lives in sexual promiscuity, drug abuse and alike. Women are often abandoned by their husbands and lots of children don’t go to school. The drinking joints attract university students and they miss school to become vagabonds, to the detriment of their families and future careers.

Having seen this community with different eyes, Frank intends to bring individuals and organisations together to see the invisible people in the community.  He will start by developing discipleship connections with these wasted youth, unemployed women and children not going to school. These youth can be motivated to go back to school, learning skills that can contribute toward their social-economic development and spiritual growth; women can also be discipled for their spiritual development and empowered with skills that can also contribute to their own socio-economic development.  This community transformation will become a microcosm for other equally affected places in Kabale and beyond.
