As part of our Life Skills curriculum, students do "Testimonies," in which they volunteer to tell their life stories in front of their peers. It gives students more confidence and empathy. Self-reflection is vital to success! https://t.co/QXqPUczFp4

Did you know that our Health and Spiritual Empowerment program was originally women's empowerment many years ago? Even though we now empower entire communities holistically, we still help people understand women's God-given value. Learn more: https://t.co/yCFa3vMado.

This awesome lady is Matilda, and she is an incredible community leader in Sinde village. She works closely with our Healthy and Safe Kitchens staff to lead and train her neighbors so that everyone in her community has a fuel-efficient stove. Thank you, Matilda!

Anyone who knows Harriet knows she LOVES to dance! If you ever get a chance to come to #Uganda for a dance party with our Healthy and Safe Kitchens team, take it. There's nothing else in the world like it. Learn more: https://t.co/Srtairngnp.

Life Skills empowers students with the confidence and language skills they need to speak publicly. At first, students are scared to speak in front of their peers. But by the time we leave a school, everyone wants to share their thoughts and ideas! https://t.co/QXqPUci4xw

Manuela Ongyera started Kibo's Life Skills program because she wanted to extend Kibo's emphasis on community transformation to the next generation. To this day, her love for schoolchildren shines through. Learn more about our work in Busoga's schools at https://t.co/QXqPUci4xw!

Some people say it's bad to have favorites. We disagree! We love when people fall in love with one of our five programs simply because that program's work resonates with them so deeply.

Practicing proper sanitation can take a lot of time, energy, and money, and talking about unhealthy sanitation practices, like defecating in the open, can be (understandably) embarrassing. Luckily, our staff has a secret weapon: humor. Learn more: https://t.co/p16RMAOXWB

Teamwork makes the dream work! Our Healthy&Safe Kitchens staff teaches communities how to build stoves out of free materials, but they still require an investment of time&money! But that's no problem in Buluvu village where the community is united for a healthier village for all!

Life Skills isn't our only program that teaches dental care, because adults have teeth, too! Our Health and Spiritual Empowerment program staff also teach adults how to care for their teeth properly. Learn more: https://t.co/YEGHnwjVeH.

Do you remember when Bukudumira got 250 saplings a few months ago? Those saplings are growing up strong! Our Mvule staff continues to meet regularly with Bukudumira to work toward economic flourishing for the entire village. Learn how trees start it all: https://t.co/P54lI9pIMu.

Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. Then go quickly and tell his disciples: ‘He has risen from the dead ..." Matthew 28:5-7 (NIV) #HappyEaster

All five of our programs encourage open communication, mutual respect, and faithful love between husbands & wives. Healthy marriages mean healthy families, which lead to healthy communities. Learn more about our work by subscribing to our email newsletter: https://t.co/21a5yGLktq

Our WASH staff helps save lives. They educate communities about sanitation and help them gain access to clean water. That's why many people call our staff "doctors." Their commitment to our partner villages means fewer people die. Support our WASH program: https://t.co/O4ZKfS84Ay

[Kibo Group @kibogroup]

We love to see people in our partner villages start economic projects — like building bricks ⬇️ — to help their communities thrive! When people aren't sick in the hospital or worrying about where they will get clean water, they have more freedom to invest their time!

Our incredible #LifeSkills Education and Counseling staff members, Manuela & Lorna, work so hard to provide much-needed life-skills education to children in rural schools. The next generation of Ugandans will be better because of them! Learn more: https://t.co/QXqPUci4xw.

We are happy to report that the trees in Bukudumira village are thriving! Alex B. has continued to visit weekly with Bukudumira's Community Development committee to make sure the saplings — and their committee — remain strong. https://t.co/y4SGdILRHQ.

Kamya Charles is a rockstar. Because of him, Igerera village has completed our sanitation and hygiene program faster than any village ever! Learn how Charles and Kibo worked together to make it happen, and what it means for the community: https://t.co/ZDjV8veOgp.

When we call the communities we work with PARTNER villages, we mean it. We mourn and celebrate with our friends in the village. We get our hands dirty with them (our Healthy and Safe Kitchens team does that every week! 👇). That's #theKiboWay: https://t.co/o755OX6jEG

There are some dangerous health myths out there. That's why oral care education is a big need in our partner villages. Good thing we have a professional nurse on staff! Irene taught Bupeni village all about teeth and how to care for them: https://t.co/z9EkxK4sAT.
