FUFA’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activity aimed at making communities happy through football has gained support from a top minister in the Busoga Kingdom.
Hon Joan Machora who is the Minister of Foreign Affairs in the Busoga Kingdom made a personal donation of 500 pieces of cloths to FUFA through 87.7 Baba FM in Bugembe who are partners of this noble cause attached to this year’s Uganda Cup.
The beneficiaries Missionaries of the Poor will be handed the items a week after the Uganda cup final together with the players of the winning team.
‘I know very many people are having clothes in their houses but we need to learn the culture of giving and helping the needy. I call upon all people from Busoga to respond well to this cause. Let’s learn to give and through this practice God will even reward you more. Very many people need our helping hand to make their lives better so let us do it if we can’ said Hon. Machora.
She also thanked FUFA and Baba fm 87.7 for coming up with such a brilliant idea.
Nicholas Kalanzi a senior sports presenter on Baba FM received the items on behalf of the radio which will be handed over to FUFA.
During the launch of the 2015/2016 Uganda cup FUFA Communications Manager Ahmed Hussein said;
‘We shall attach a CSR activity by collecting clothes and other items that we shall give back to a selected charity organisation within the region that hosts the Uganda cup final. FUFA has also asked its 32 Members to join the cause’
On Baba FM’s kind support and involvement, Hussein said; ‘Sports needs generous people to move forward. We know how sports can make people happy and even change their lives. We thank Baba FM for being part of this cause’
FUFA partnered with Baba fm to help in the cause and also act as a collection centre in Eastern Uganda.
