Dr. Hamis Kiggundu Launches Hamz Cup with Historic Prizes at FIFA-Approved Hamz Stadium
October 8, 2024
In a remarkable act of generosity and vision, Dr. Hamis Kiggundu, a distinguished Ugandan author, entrepreneur, and advocate for African empowerment, recently visited Namibia with a mission to uplift the nation’s youth. Committed to fostering a brighter future for Africa, Dr. Kiggundu donated 10,000 copies of his influential books, Success and Failure Based on Reason and Reality and Reason as the World Masterpiece, to students and young leaders across Namibia. His goal? To spark a mindset shift that encourages critical thinking, purpose-driven action, and a pathway to prosperity.
A Gift of Knowledge and Transformation
Dr. Kiggundu’s donation represents more than a collection of books; it’s an investment in the minds of the next generation. Through his writing, he calls on young Africans to unlock the potential within themselves, harness the power of reason, and use available resources wisely. His books touch on subjects that resonate deeply with Africa’s youth, tackling the continent’s unique challenges and laying out a roadmap to personal and communal growth built on self-reliance and logical thinking.
“Reason as the World Masterpiece”: A Blueprint for Africa’s Success
In Reason as the World Masterpiece, Dr. Kiggundu delves into the role of reasoning in achieving prosperity. He emphasizes that rational decision-making and purposeful action are key to overcoming Africa’s longstanding challenges. This book explores why Africa, despite its abundant resources, has yet to achieve its full potential. Dr. Kiggundu highlights that the missing link is the application of reason—an approach that Western nations have embraced to achieve progress. His message is clear and powerful: Africa’s journey from poverty to prosperity requires a focus on reasoned, purposeful actions.
“Success and Failure Based on Reason and Reality”: A Guide to Financial Empowerment
In contrast, Success and Failure Based on Reason and Reality provides a practical framework for financial success. This 16-chapter book offers valuable insights on building wealth, finding a sense of purpose, and setting personal goals. Since its release in 2018, it has been a source of inspiration, winning Uganda’s Book of the Year award in the Business Motivation category. Dr. Kiggundu’s practical wisdom has made this book a national bestseller, and he hopes that Namibian youth will find similar guidance and motivation within its pages.
Making Education Accessible: Expanding the Message
Understanding the importance of accessibility, Dr. Kiggundu took the extra step to translate his books into Luganda, a widely spoken language in Uganda. By offering his books in a native language, he broadens the reach of his ideas, ensuring his transformative messages are accessible to more people. The Uganda Ministry of Education and Sports, through the National Curriculum Development Center (NCDC), has recognized the value of his books, recommending them for inclusion in the national curriculum for secondary schools and institutions of higher learning. This endorsement underlines the books’ potential to inspire Ugandan students to think critically and begin investing in their futures.
A Legacy of Giving
This latest donation in Namibia is part of Dr. Kiggundu’s broader mission to give back. Since 2018, he has donated nearly a million copies of his books to schools, libraries, and educational institutions across Uganda, offering students the tools to dream big and achieve their aspirations. His generosity has empowered countless young minds, laying the foundation for a new generation of thinkers, leaders, and innovators.
Building Africa’s Future Through Knowledge
Dr. Hamis Kiggundu’s vision transcends national borders. His donation of 10,000 books to Namibian youth is a testament to his belief in Africa’s potential. By equipping young people with the knowledge and tools to think critically and act with purpose, he is laying the groundwork for a prosperous and self-sustaining Africa. His books serve as beacons of hope and inspiration, reminding every young African that their future lies in the power of reason and determination.
In a world full of challenges, Dr. Kiggundu’s message rings clear: with reason, resources, and resilience, Africa can achieve greatness. Through every book he donates, he brings this vision one step closer to reality.
