By Bwengye Samuel
In the quiet hills of Makanga Cell, nestled within the heart of Central Division, Kabale Municipality, a young boy was born into a world full of challenges, yet equally rich in dreams. That boy is Bwengye Samuel, a name that now echoes through his community and into the lives of many—a beacon of resilience, hope, and unwavering faith.
Samuel was orphaned at an early age, facing the kind of loss and hardship that could easily silence a future. But where many would see a dead end, Samuel saw a deeper calling. In the silence of his struggle, he heard a voice urging him to rise, to grow, and to walk forward with purpose. He is determined not to be defined by what he lost—but by what he hopes to become.
Today, Samuel volunteers with Hearing Hearts, an organization committed to healing, compassion, and community service. As a volunteer, Samuel gives his time, energy, and heart to the vulnerable—those who, like him, know the sting of hardship but still hold onto hope. His mission is simple: to listen, to uplift, and to remind others that they are not alone.

Spiritually, Samuel is on a powerful personal journey. He strives daily to become the best version of himself, deepening his relationship with God and growing in humility, faith, and strength. His spiritual growth has become a guiding light, helping him navigate life’s challenges with grace and courage.
At the core of Samuel’s dreams lies a passion for engineering. His eyes shine when he speaks about the future—about building things that matter, solving real-world problems, and using his mind and hands to transform communities. For him, engineering is not just a profession; it’s a calling to create, to innovate, and to give back.

His story is a living message: where you begin doesn’t have to define where you go. Samuel is walking proof that pain can be turned into purpose, and that dreams, no matter how distant they may seem, are reachable with perseverance, faith, and community.
“Every day I wake up, I remind myself I am not what happened to me—I am what I choose to become,” Samuel says.
