School days might be behind us, but the bonds forged in classrooms and on playgrounds often last a lifetime. This enduring connection is precisely why school Old Students’ Associations are so incredibly powerful. They aren’t just about nostalgia; they are vibrant hubs for networking, mentorship, and collective development, proving that the spirit of community extends far beyond graduation.
One excellent example is the Kawempe Muslim Old Students Association (KAMOSA), which was established in 1998 and revitalized in 2018. KAMOSA is driven by a profound sense of gratitude to support Kawempe Muslim Secondary School through activities like annual dinners, fundraising for infrastructure projects, and, notably, sports events.
There’s something uniquely unifying about the spirit of competition and camaraderie that sports ignite. Whether it’s a friendly football match, a spirited netball game, or a competitive race, these events transcend age and background, bringing alumni, current students, and even families together in shared excitement.
Sports galas do more than just entertain; they promote healthy lifestyles, strengthen bonds, and rekindle a sense of belonging and pride in one’s former school. They are celebrations of shared history and renewed friendships, building stronger community ties with every cheer and every goal.
At Newman Foods Limited, we deeply understand the value of community and the power of shared experiences. Our involvement in events like the KAMOSA Sports Gala 2025 is not just about fun; it’s about making a deliberate investment in the holistic well-being of the community.
We recognize that particularly through sports, as has been evident with the Kanta Football Tournament, young people are inspired to channel their energy into constructive and building activities rather than destructive patterns. This focus on holistic well-being is vital for us because a healthy customer and a thriving community are our ultimate desire.
We look forward to the next edition of the KAMOSA Sports Gala.
