I am Peter Mutabazi.

And this is my story.

As a child in Uganda, I grew up with shelter, food and clothing scarcity. But more than that, I grew up with safety scarcity. I feared for my life from a father who threatened me, and frequently called me “garbage” and “useless.” Parents are supposed to protect their children. When my father didn’t, I ran away from home to live on the streets in Kampala.

Four years of doing whatever I needed to survive, a young couple:

… saw me

… heard me

… told me I wasn’t alone

… and showed me that I mattered.

They sent me to school. They put a roof over my head. They clothed me. And fed me three meals a day. And allowed me to be a child. So I could grow up to do the same for others.

I decided to do for other children what this one couple did for me.
