Let’s Play Our Part as Adults

"As an African people, giving is our way of life." _ Maria Opolot Aminat⁠In this episode of the Community Podcast, we sit down with Maria Opolot Aminat, a lawyer and founder of Ikoku Protection and Justice, an organization providing free legal representation and psychosocial support to children in conflict with the law across Uganda.Maria's story is, at its core, a story about giving. She gives her legal skill pro bono. She gives her time to families and communities working through forgiveness. She gives her patience to children who need far more than a single day in court to change direction. And she gives her partnerships freely, building alliances with law firms, schools, police, and local leaders to make sure no child is left to face the system alone. This conversation is a reminder that generosity has many forms, money, yes, but also time, treasure, and talent, and that the most lasting kind of giving is often the quietest.Listen to the full episode, and if Maria's story of generosity moves you, like, comment, and share it with someone who believes in giving back."Maybe we'll be generous even in our actions, even in our words." _ Maria Opolot Aminat⁠ Catch Up on paste episode HERE: #CommunityPodcastSeries
