Bravo bravo bravo! Kudos and hats off to Antoinette, Pato, Kumara and the Ubuntu family which is growing by leaps and bounds for launching the Empowerment Fund!
This year I have had the absolute pleasure of joining the Ubuntu International journey with Antoinette Rootsdawtah, Pato Banton, Ted Schmidt, and many others mentioned in this post.
This post previews the growing Ubuntu Family Network of community based organizations in Africa as well as the newly launched Ubuntu Empowerment Fund that seeks to support them.
You can donate directly from this Ubuntu International Substack post or become a paid subscriber to help seed the Ubuntu Empowerment Fund. I'm a paid subscriber and hope you will join me there.
The Spirit of Ubuntu documentary that Antoinette and Pato produced is currently playing at major film festivals worldwide (I'm going along with my boys to the one in NYC in early August). From that energy is blossoming a beautiful movement of people practicing Ubuntu, an African philosophy of mutual support and care.
Those who know me well, know that I've had a love for community development, public service, culture, language, food systems, and permaculture for many years. And, that I've devoted much of my adult life to those causes locally and in Kenya and more recently Nakivale Refugee Settlement in Uganda.
I am just astounded that I fell into this group of people who love what I love! And, I thank Omito Abraham Owuor of K5Village for making that happen. A whole new world has opened up and I'm here for it.
The journey has been so rich since the beginning of my involvement with UI, along with Pato and Antoinette! It is also an avenue in which one can get involved, and expand your network of resonant hearts in sharing circular economies and learning reciprocating and expansive ideas in sustainability!
