About Hashakimana Alex

In a small village called Kigezi in Kisoro, Uganda, there lives a boy named Hashakimana Alex. At just 10 years old, Alex carries a spirit of hope and joy that shines brightly, despite the challenges he faces every day. Born on the 31st of January, 2015, Alex is a member of the Hutu tribe and has a deep connection to his roots. His life may seem simple, but his dreams are grand.

Alex lives with his parents, Iyamuremye Innocent and Bavakule Anonsiata, both hardworking peasants who strive to make ends meet. Their home, humble yet full of love, is where Alex shares laughter and stories with his siblings—his sister Manirafasha Olivia and his brothers, Muhoza Daniel and Muhawenimana Ediga. Together, they form a close-knit family, supporting each other in their journey through life.

Though they do not have much, Alex's parents are determined to provide him with an education. He attends Cornerstone Preparatory School, a school located near his village, where he continues to nurture his love for learning. But as with many children in rural Uganda, the road to education is not always easy. Resources are limited, and the financial strain on the family often feels overwhelming. Yet, Alex’s hope never wavers, and his passion for football and singing brings him joy and a sense of possibility that extends beyond his circumstances.

Alex's favorite activities are playing football with his friends in the open fields and singing songs that echo through the hills of Kigezi. His love for football is not just about the game; it’s about the teamwork, the discipline, and the dreams of one day becoming more than his circumstances suggest. His voice, full of enthusiasm, often rises in song, a reminder of the resilience and strength that define his character.

Despite his challenges, Alex’s determination to succeed is unwavering. His parents, though poor, value education above all else and work tirelessly to support their children. However, there are still obstacles in their way, and as a result, Alex’s dreams are often at risk of being cut short due to financial limitations.

With your support, Alex will be able to continue his education, develop his talents, and move closer to his dream of becoming someone who can inspire others.

Alex is not an orphan, but his family’s resources are limited, and your sponsorship will provide him with the opportunity to grow, learn, and thrive.

Your contribution can help unlock the door to a brighter future for Alex, where his dreams are no longer out of reach but within his grasp.
