YWCA Ugandan family visits YWCA Auckland
We were extremely privileged to have Joyce Mungherera - General Secretary of YWCA Uganda (retired) visit the YWCA Auckland office with her husband Seth and daughter Dr Jennifer Mungherera (Member - YWCA Auckland).
Joyce did incredible work with the YWCA in Uganda, spanning over 40 years. Her grass roots and rural projects did much to empower women in Uganda and apparently many politicians credit their political careers to the starts they made with the YWCA. Joyce has also won a major international award for her work with the World Hunger Project, an awa.
One of the special things about the YWCA is the international family aspect and we get to meet women like Joyce.
The YWCA in Uganda has 1.5 million members!
Thank you for visiting us and making the connection. And now that Joyce knows her daughter Jennifer doesn’t live too far away from us, we know Jennifer will be ‘encouraged’ to become a part of the YWCA Auckland family.
