The Launch started at 5:00pm where one by one arrived far and near coming to stand together as we start the journey of Turning Ashes into Beauty
The Beauty for Ashes humanitarian initiative was officially launched on December 19, 2024, in Kampala, Uganda. The initiative was born out of the heartbreaking loss of Sharifa Nabakooza to breast cancer and is dedicated to raising cancer awareness, encouraging early screening, and promoting care, dignity, and support for individuals and families affected by cancer. The initiative is led by Dr. Mary Mwesigwa, a Ugandan medical doctor currently based in the United States, whose vision is to improve lives through prevention, compassion, and advocacy.
Culture came alive through dance as a talented local group performed in stunning traditional dress. Their energetic movements and radiant smiles reminded everyone that healing encompasses more than medicine it includes joy, community, and celebrating our heritage together. In their synchronized steps and vibrant costumes, we witnessed a powerful truth: even amid cancer and grief, there is still room for dignity, connection, and the beauty of who we are.
The visitors got to be together to push ideas how to support the vision and be able to turn people's Ashes into Beauty which is the goal (Hope Beyond Diagnosis) Unite is one Key aspect
Togetherness in one Harmony is the key that keeps us moving forward, so we need to unite together to pick those in Ashes to turn their Ashes into beauty which makes them not to give up that aren't alone in the battle
