Our Founding story
The Inspiration Behind OEF
The Olaboro Ejuku Foundation (OEF) was founded out of a deep conviction that every Ugandan deserves to live with dignity, health, and opportunity.
Its founder, Mr. Emmy Ejuku, spent over 28 years in Uganda’s Public Service, leading in districts such as Apac, Bulambuli, Nabilatuk, Koboko, and Kaberamaido. Through his service, he saw the everyday struggles of rural communities, mothers giving birth without medical care, youth lacking employment opportunities, and girls missing school due to menstrual challenges.
These realities sparked a vision: to build a foundation that empowers people to overcome barriers and create lasting change from within their own communities.
Turning Vision into Action
In 2021, this vision came to life with the birth of the Olaboro Ejuku Foundation (OEF). Guided by values of integrity, empowerment, and sustainability, OEF focuses on maternal and child health, youth empowerment, and menstrual hygiene management.
Under Mr. Ejuku’s leadership, the Foundation partners with local governments, youth groups, and women’s organizations to deliver programs that improve livelihoods and strengthen community systems.
What began as one man’s mission has grown into a movement, transforming communities and empowering futures across Uganda.
