A sad and dark day in the world of philanthropy! RIP Barry! You have left footprints in our communities in Uganda and Africa at large. Your legacy will. Live on in the countless lives you have touched through @SegalFoundation and other foundations.
A tribute from Nyaka to Barry Segal
At Nyaka, we are deeply saddened by the passing of Barry Segal a visionary, a changemaker, and a beloved friend. For over 20 years, Barry was not just a donor he was family. Through the @SegalFoundation, he stood by Nyaka from the beginning, helping us grow from a single school in rural Uganda into a movement supporting thousands of children, grandmothers, and survivors of sexual and gender-based violence.
Barry believed in community-led change. He trusted grassroots leaders and gave generously, not only of his resources but of his heart. His impact reached far beyond Nyaka his philanthropy transformed lives across Africa and the world. He challenged injustice, called out inequality, and used his voice and fortune to fight for those most often forgotten.
Even at 90, Barry was still showing up, still dreaming of a better world. His legacy lives on in every classroom, every healed heart, and every child whose future is now filled with hope.
To his family, we send our deepest love and gratitude. Barry will always be a part of Nyaka’s story and his light will never dim.
Rest in peace, Barry. Your roots are forever part of our forest.
With love and remembrance,
The Nyaka Family

This achievement highlights Nyaka’s commitment to academic excellence and student success.
Sincere gratitude to all our donors who supported these students. 🙏

Thank you @AbsaUganda for supporting education the education of girls in Uganda especially the @NyakaGlobal girls in Kanungu and Rukungiri Districts! @Twejaka
Nyaka is honored to be at @AbsaUganda, invited to be recognized as a beneficiary of the funds from the 2nd edition of the Absa KH3_7 Hills Run. Our CEO @Twejaka, former COO @JNantale, and Communications Manager @amandamucyo are in attendance.
I met the coolest kids in the world today! Their energy, creativity, and kindness were incredibly inspiring. Every moment was filled with laughter and joy, their vibe perfectly matched mine. I wouldn't trade this moment for anything.
History in the making! 😉 Last month, Steven Kisingiri, Director at @globalemergcare, participated in a panel with many others to validate #Uganda's first National Diploma in Emergency Medical Care.
Such a great initiative. We can't wait to see its results!
