What does any parent want, when it comes right down to it? To be able to feed, clothe, and educate their kids. For single mothers coping with cultural pressures to conform to gender norms, it’s especially difficult. Carpentry is traditionally a male occupation, so signing up for the training program at the Muhokya Carpentry Workshop takes an enormous amount of courage. Jozonia has now graduated from the training program. The Workshop provides some business training, and a small collection of hand tools, so she is now well on her way to gainful employment.

Dear Karen
Thank you for thinking about me, and for establishing Omughisa Rwenzori community development society which iam hopeful will help support many development projects in Rwenzori region as there many concerns here which needs some attention and support
However I would like to inform you that I have been transfered from Musasa primary school to Kahendero primary school. This school is in Muhokya town council.
As you help to support single mothers in Kyarumba and Musasa areas which is a good job weldone I also suggest and request you to extend your support also to all single mothers in Rwenzori region if you can.
Yours faithfully
Kandaba Godfrey
That is a very large request that you are making, and truly impossible for us to consider supporting all single mothers in the Rwenzori region. We are just getting started and can hardly finance the projects we already want to complete, such as the multi-purpose hall at Musasa, and the Muhokya carpentry workshop construction. We will not be adding any more projects for a very long time.
