Ivan at the SAFY Youth Centre
Ivan Nsamba, 19, Kitamanyangamba
“Before I joined SAFY, I was under looked by most of the mature people and my fellow youth too just because they were calling me a "MUYAYE" yet I wasn't. But when SAFY came, they helped me to improve on my behaviors and now I have gained respect.
“Also when I joined SAFY, I was among the youth who were trained as a Peer Educator and now I act as a role model in the community and parents want me to help them change their children behaviors and they also become like me. And I think it's a great achievement.
“Am willing to become a real music star, a good drama actor and a person who is willing to monitor the welfare of the children and all those are under my future plans.
“Message to my fellow youth: remember that patience pays but to achieve from it you pass through pain. So please don't look to what is close to your eyes but only think of what will be the outcomes in future.”
