    BETTINA PRAISING

    DEAR DIARY,

    So last Thursday, I took a leap of faith and wrote an open letter to the Bryan White Foundation, with the help of many of you (of course, through your social media shares, reactions and comments), the message reached some big wigs at the Foundation.

    In my letter was a budget for a group of village farmers, I have always nursed this dream to assist them, but this had never come to pass because of my current financial standing, especially if I was to scale and sustain the dream to grow more legs. But that’s soon about to become past tense.

    I am beyond humbled for having been given an opportunity to interact with all ‘Podiumians’ this morning, ba-guy, you are very good people.

    By the way it is always better to always take time to listen to the other side of the story, Bryan White is actually a nice person, humble and welcoming, the thing is sometimes people don’t like brutally honest people but well, life can’t be the way you want it sometimes you need bitter sweet love.

    You must be wondering where I am going with this, so the budget (in fact the dream) will be taken care of, in fact this Thursday, all the Farmers will receive the tools I asked for live from my village Kakooni-Vvumba,I am smiling head to toe, ear to nose and even my left elbow is smiling, it takes a lot of confidence to be this woman.

    Oooh did I say that together with his foundation, he is going to visit my farm and see how he can help me to take it to another level????ooooh please I am sorry hadn’t mentioned that part.

    In other related news, I have been appointed to be in charge of farming projects under the Bryan White Foundation ??#proudfarmer

    Proud farmer’s proposal to be fully funded by Bryan White Foundation this week

    Proud Farmer and socialite, Bettina Praising, has today been welcomed to Bryan White foundation’s podium to present her budget for her farmers in Zirobwe. Bryan White through his foundation has pledged total support to her projects and those of her fellow farmers.

    As a commitment to support her, the foundation team will on Thursday this week visit her farms in Zirobwe, Gayaza Kyadondo in a fact finding mission. The foundation will then meet a team of farmers mobilized by Bettina to receive their farming tools. The foundation team will also go with the tools she requested for amounting to UGX 15m.  

    “I wanted to do something different after leaving the media. I have passion for farming. I wanted to change the women and youths. I started campaign through Facebook with hash tag #ProudFarmer. I have been preaching about farmers about farming been giving my local farmers budget to help them. I have been preaching about farming and my aim is to uplift the women and youths,” Bettina said.

    Bryan White said the foundation will appoint Bettina Tumuhaise as an ambassador to promote farming and reach out to different farmers to promote farming. “Every person that comes out with such an idea, we don’t hesitate to support. We are here to inspire the youth from poverty,” he said.

    The activist again called on Ugandans to stop hating each other and love their nation if they are to progress.

    Meanwhile Bryan White accused The Kampala Sun Tabloid of trying to bring his activities down. “We are working for the nation, we don’t stop you from publishing but you are going beyond. You take us like fools and yet we are working for the nation. Publish messages that will help the country, inspire the youths, we talk about how to fight HIV and poverty but you don’t talk about it. You will not scare me from my country, we are here forever and we shall fight on till we get to our levels. I invited these guys to help me spread the message but it has become a trouble for them.  They have families and kids to work for so let them be,” Bryan White said.
