Meet Peter Mumbya


When our founder John Maitland last visited Kamuli, he met and chatted to the lovely, PETER MUMBYA
Peter served in John and his wife's hotel in Kamuli and after a brief chat John discovered that Peter had completed his O levels and A level examinations. He successfully completed Fine Art, Economics, Chemistry, and Geography at A level. Quite an accomplishment!!
It was then wonderful to hear that UDS had helped him ........
The UDS library, he says, helped him to get good grades.
books” in the UDS library.
no school fees, he paid 50p a week to enable him to go on reading in the UDS
library. He found “the right books" in the UDS library. Even when he was out of school because of having no school fees, he paid 50p a week to enable him to go on reading in the UDS library. The staff “are my friends – they know me very well”.
It is great to know that together we are making a difference. If you would like to help and get involved, then please get in touch http://www.ugandadev.org.uk/about/
