Paddy Kwira Kabagambe25 September 1946 — 7 November 2020

An industrialist by profession.
A community servant at heart.

Paddy helped build factories, but his concern reached far beyond their gates. He supported students, helped establish Karambi Secondary School and built a medical centre in his home community of Isango.

His family and friends established PKMF to carry that generosity forward. Today, his memory brings people together around practical service in Kasese and the Rwenzori region.
