LEADERSHIP TEAM
Founding members continue to serve the vision of BFFF through decision-making, collaboration, and personalized actions. Thanks to Hillary for his tireless efforts to ensure that construction, caretaking, and initiatives are completed in a good way. We are grateful to Bridget for her ongoing connections to government and community, including the most recent Government-sponsored Irrigation support which she spearheaded. Thank you to Tyson for maintaining foundational relationships with Batwa members of Kyevu and supporting Indigenous Plant Knowledge exchanges. Many thanks to Judith for her ongoing advice and expertise in permaculture, and her donation of seeds (transported by bus via Kampala). BFFF appreciates Joe's engineering and construction skills and taking time to work with local community in building projects (i.e., Welcome Center). Nadine continues to build bridges and support initiatives on the ground, while Catarina has joined the team to support social media efforts.
CARETAKERS EXTRAORDINAIRE
GEORGE
Over the past few years, George has established himself as a reliable and respected member of the BFFF community. He is trusted to take care of the land, wildlife, livestock (i.e.g, rabbits), infrastructure, tools, and community relations, and has become a valued mentor for youth, organic gardening, and other BFFF members. We hold our hands up to George for his knowledge, passion, and commitment to BFFF.
NOAH
Can't say enough about Noah. From living beyond community margins, with little voice or value, Noah has transformed into a highly respected BFFF member. He is skilled in carving, weaving, accounting, and gardening, and has found new passions in speaking, singling, and dancing (especially 'rap'). Through the leadership roles that Noah has been given within BFFF, his family and community are thrilled to witness such positive change and potential.
