What Our Clients are Saying

Betty Ssempagama

Dear Director of Obado Group,

I would like to thank you for the great opportunity on encouraging me to study. It was not easy for the fact that English was not my first language and l was struggling during assignment plus my age.

When l see my Certificates, I feel proud and always you are the first person who comes in my mind. Also l was encouraged by friends to give up but l persisted l believe education has no age limit and l advise my friends to study if they have a chance. No where l would have got this chance if l was back home.

God bless you

Charities like OBADO and others have made a huge differnce during this devastating pandemic"

You really helped us to stay in isolation without worrying, when you supported us with food, sanitizing stuff, and credit on our phones, and not to that only, but calling on us once a week, to comfort us. Thank you so much OBADO, God bless you abundantly. And people there who are feeling lonely in your houses, please contact OBADO, it won't be the same."

Joel Francis

"Obado is a great organisation and as a 90 year old pensioner I have found the service to be invaluable in combating loneliness and isolation. It has provided a place where I can meet new people and take part in social activities like card games, Scrabble and Domino's. I have made friends and I really look forward to the two meetings each week. During the pandemic lock down when we haven't been able to meet OBADO has been very supportive by contacting me weekly by phone and also providing cultural foods to me and to other members of OBADO."
