Buwekula South Constituency’s renowned philanthropist and aspiring Member of Parliament, Dedan Mubangizi, has been entrusted with the vital responsibility of spearheading a fundraising campaign to complete the construction of the only community church-school in Kayebe, Mubende.
The leadership of St. Mark Kayebe Secondary School, together with the local church, made the special request to Mubangizi, recognizing his unwavering commitment to the community and his strong social capital.
Mubangizi has long been a pillar of support for the people of Buwekula South, significantly improving the lives of the locals through various initiatives.
His dairy farm has created numerous job opportunities, allowing families in the area to improve their livelihoods.
In addition, his substantial contributions to the health sector cannot go unnoticed.
Mubangizi provided an ambulance and vital CT scan equipment to the local Health Center IV, ensuring that essential medical services are accessible to the people of Buwekula.
His generous spirit was further demonstrated when he organized a medical camp that treated over 10,000 patients free of charge, addressing critical health issues in the constituency mid this year.
His passion for nurturing talent and supporting youth initiatives also led him to organize a football tournament aimed at promoting local sports talent.
Mubangizi offered practical rewards to the winning clubs, gifting them cows, an initiative designed to encourage small-scale agriculture alongside sports development.
His approach to development is multifaceted, addressing both the immediate needs of his community and their long-term empowerment.
With such a record of tangible accomplishments, it was no surprise that the leadership of St. Mark Kayebe School and the church identified Dedan Mubangizi as the ideal candidate to head the fundraising efforts for their community church-school.
The ongoing construction of the facility represents hope for spiritual growth and educational advancement in the region, making it a critical project for the people of Kayebe.
Mubangizi, known for his vast network and ability to mobilize resources, intends to rally support from across the nation to ensure the success of this godly cause.
His appeal to people from all walks of life has already begun to attract attention, and the upcoming fundraiser, set for 9th November 2024, is expected to draw contributions from well-wishers far and wide.
His leadership in this campaign is a reflection of his dedication not just to political ambitions, but to the well-being and development of the people he seeks to represent.
In a statement about his new role as the chief fundraiser, Mubangizi said, “This project is not just about building a structure; it is about building a future. A place where children can receive both spiritual guidance and education. I am humbled by the trust placed in me, and together, we can complete this church-school for the benefit of generations to come.”
As the countdown to the fundraising event begins, the community of Buwekula South is optimistic that Mubangizi’s involvement will ensure the timely completion of the church-school, a cornerstone of both faith and education in Kayebe.
His reputation as a community leader and philanthropist has already inspired many to join hands in support of the initiative, further cementing his status as a key figure in the constituency’s development.
