Welcome To: BUSHENYI SPECILIATY LIONS CLUB
Chartered on 31st December,2020 Bushenyi Speciality Lions Club was found by health professionals and educationists who for more than 12 years have served in this community with a keen interest to identify factors leading to school drop-out. In our midst we have witnessed many unfortunate school-goers who willingly and with good career intention started school processes but due to multiple causes did not complete. For a few, we voluntarily intervened with our limited capacities and secured their return to school which enabled them to complete their career development. The major highlighted causes for this school drop-out are: Lack of Career Mentorship, Lack of Sustainable Up-keep and Lack of Tuition. .
Driven by Our Main theme in Service: "Stay In School (SIS)" we strongly believe that every student can be retained in school up to completion of his /her career development process if:
- He /She is persistently inspired and mentored over his/her career mission.
- Sustained up-keep ( for food, accommodation, other social amenities) is provided
- Tuition source is assured.
Therefore, as a Speciality Club we intend to tackle youth empowerment by emphasizing “Stay In School” through 3 approaches: Career mentorship, Sustained Up-Keep and Operating a revolving Tuition Fund.
Being part of a bigger community, as health-care professionals, we shall also make a contribution towards fighting Hunger and related poor health due to Malnutrition, Environment Conservation, Visual Defects, Diabetes and Childhood Cancer.
We pray for God's guidance and support from fellow Lions world-wide as we take on this endeavour. We remain very open to any suggestions and constructive advice to make our Lions club grow its capacity To Serve Humanity.
GOD BLESS US AS WE SERVE!!
