During the fundraiser, representatives from Centenary Bank highlighted their longstanding relationship with the Diocese of Kabale, which played a pivotal role in the bank’s establishment. “Centenary Bank is honoured to be part of the Bishop’s Annual Appeal Fund Dinner tonight, an event aimed at raising funds to support developmental activities for the diocese and beyond,” said Beatrice Lugalambi, the bank’s General Manager of Corporate and Marketing.
The funds raised during this dinner will be directed towards critical projects, including the construction of a four-story commercial building in Kabale town, expected to generate sustainable income for the diocese. Other initiatives supported by the appeal include renovating diocesan infrastructure, funding education projects, and strengthening community programs.
Narcis Tumushabe Rwangonga, Chairman of the Kigezi Kampala Catholic Association, called upon well-wishers and friends to contribute towards achieving these development goals. “Together, we can help the diocese achieve its development goals and ensure it remains financially sustainable,” he stated.
The fundraiser is part of a broader weekend of activities organized by the Kigezi Kampala Catholic Association, which included a marathon led by the Bishop of the Diocese and a mass officiated by him on Sunday, where additional contributions were collected.
