Football in Buikwe just got a game-changing upgrade!
Buikwe Woman MP Diana Mutasingwa, who also serves as the State Minister in the Office of the Vice President, has injected Shs 10 million into the Buikwe District Football Association (DFA).
But that’s not all—she also donated football kits and playing uniforms to all teams under the DFA.
The donation, handed over during a ceremony at Nakibizi Stadium in Njeru Municipality, is a testament to Mutasingwa’s commitment to youth empowerment and sports development.
A Milestone for Buikwe Football
For Buikwe DFA, this isn’t just a donation—it’s a lifeline. Ali Kiwanuka, the DFA’s Chief Executive Officer, couldn’t hide his excitement.
“This support will enhance the quality of the game, empower young players, and create more opportunities for them at higher levels,” he said.
The funds are expected to improve football infrastructure, while the kits and uniforms will give teams a much-needed morale boost. It’s a win-win for everyone involved.
More Than Just a Game
Mutasingwa’s donation goes beyond the pitch. She sees football as a powerful tool for personal and professional growth.
“I believe football has the power to transform lives,” she said.
Her vision is clear: use sports to instill discipline, teamwork, and resilience in young people. By keeping them engaged in positive activities like football, she hopes to steer them away from negative influences such as drugs and alcohol.
“This donation is part of a broader initiative to equip young people with the resources they need to pursue their dreams,” she added.
