It is a pleasure to share my voluntary work with the world of volunteers. Since late 1999, I was assisting my mother in chicken farming where herself was also a volunteer with A community Based organisation called ''Bakyala Maka'' literally meaning; ''a women is the pride of the family''. After a few years, that group was picked up by World Vision Uganda and I continued doing voluntary services not until I finished my secondary work and the most work I was performing now was to direct a medical doctor who was assigned with the task of carrying and treatment to HIV patients in a system named ''Home Visiting'' After that, I volunteered as a peer educator with World Vision in Kasawo ADP for over three years.
In 2007, after seeing a great suffering of the Deaf persons in Uganda specifically after a deaf friend Keyiramba Jimmy was knocked by a train just because of the road guide's weakness to guide pedestrians, I decided to study sign language and start an NGO called Deaf Rights Network {DERINE} purposely to advocate for the rights of the Deaf persons and also train Sign Language, an organisation I am still heading as a volunteer. This organisation is registered with the government and still need more volunteers to help emancipate the social life of the deaf because they are still marginalized in social, economic and political setting.
I announced that in this day, 5 December 2012, our voluntary organisation - KayuBhumi - founded in Padangsidimpuan, Indonesia !
In Iraqi Kurdistan, after much pain and suffering of the people we (at START NGO) brought back the spirit of volunteering.
Most recently we trained young people to take part in their societies, gave them sources of inspiration and brought them to be involved in everything we do. Today we have a vast number of young volunteers, and on international volunteers day - 2012 we launched the first systematic volunteering system in Iraq. Where we have a junior, intermediate and a senior volunteering system for people who like to help in the Kurdish community- with our NGO or with other NGOs.

Improving the lives of disabled people in China.
The Zheng Weining Charity Foundation supports and promotes opportunities for people with disability in China. Our project is about developing opportunities for volunteers to work with disabled people in education, employment, welfare and self development. Our volunteers give their time and expertise to create a model for inclusive social and enterprise development. There are an estimated 85 million people with disability in China and, as the gap between rich and poor widens, they are often the most excluded from education and employment. The Foundation is supported by the whole profits from social enterprises run for and by disabled people and volunteers make a huge contribution to the lives of many people.
