FIDA Uganda was most delighted to host officials from the Ford Foundation as they paid a courtesy visit on Friday 2 March 2012.

During the visit, smiles, laughter and tears revealed the close bonds and passions shared between FIDA Uganda and the Ford Foundation.

Among the guests was Mr. Maurice Makoloo. In November 2011, Mr. Makoloo was appointed as the Ford Foundation’s representative for Eastern Africa, serving Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania.

The Ford Foundation has been and continues to be one of FIDA Uganda’s most supportive partners in the protection of women’s rights. FIDA Uganda expresses sincerest gratitude to the Ford Foundation for its unwavering support.

FIDA Uganda looks forward to celebrating continued successes with the Ford Foundation in the protection of women’s rights.
