AsOne Core Values: Local Leadership

In rural Uganda, leadership isn’t always about titles or positions—it starts with a heart to make life better for your neighbors.

That’s exactly where Esborn’s story begins.

Growing up in a small village, Esborn saw firsthand the challenges of limited access to quality education, healthcare, and opportunities to grow. For many, those obstacles might have defined what was possible. But for Esborn, they became the spark to create change.

Today, as one of AsOne’s Community Directors, Esborn is not just navigating these challenges—he’s leading. He walks alongside families, farmers, and students, helping them find locally driven solutions that transform communities from the inside out. Whether improving access to education, strengthening health programs, or supporting small businesses and sustainable agriculture, Esborn’s work shows that lasting impact grows when local leaders take the lead.

At AsOne, one of our core values is local leadership—because the people who know the challenges best are also the ones best equipped to solve them. Our role is to walk alongside them, equipping and empowering leaders like Esborn to build a future of dignity, opportunity, and hope for their communities.

By investing in AsOne, you are ensuring that Ugandans are given the agency and authority to create the change they want to see for their country and communities. Thank you!
