On Monday, my UOX daughter, Grace Rena Kitibwa, called me from school in tears because of her eyesight. Her myopia had become so severe that the school administration decided to send her home since she could no longer read what was on the board or in books
What made her cry was that end-of-term exams were beginning today (Thursday), and she feared she would miss them.
Honestly, didn't have enough money on me but i remembered that i am rich on meaningful social capital. I reached out to @LwanyaagaJP, the Director of @HAPAUG01, explained the situation, and he immediately reassured me.
Long story short, because of John Paul's kind heart, Grace is back at school today, sitting her exams with clear vision.
I received her lenses late yesterday, yet her first paper was scheduled for exactly 8:00 a.m. today. I called the Deputy Headteacher, explained the situation, and requested permission to bring her in late yesterday. Thankfully, he understood and allowed it.
I was with @DeeSandy20 and @GabrielBuule at the time. Without hesitation, Dee handed me her car, Buule fueled it, and together they simply said, "Go take your daughter to school."
And let's not forget that @TumukundeTT already committed to sponsoring Grace's education until she completes school
Moments like these remind me why I'm so proud to be part of UOX.
UOX is not just an online community. It is a real family filled with generous, compassionate, and selfless people who show up when it matters most.
To every one of you who has stood with Grace and many others, thank you. May God continue to bless you abundantly for every act of kindness. ๐โค๏ธ
