About us
Who We Are
Dr. Nicholas Mwebesa Foundation, a charitable organization, was founded in 2019 by Dr. Nicholas Mwebaze Mwebesa, a Ph.D. holder in public management and institutional governance.
The inspiration behind establishing the foundation stemmed from Dr. Nicholas’s personal experience of surviving a nearfatal motor accident.
Motivated by a deep desire to contribute to the community, the foundation was created with a clear vision, mission, and objectives.
Generosity is not merely about giving; it's about making a positive impact that resonates beyond the act itself. In the symphony of humanity, charity is the harmonious note that creates a melody of compassion, touching hearts and weaving a tapestry of kindness.
