Have a look at some of the incredible success stories that have come out of Sky Is The Limit with a special message from founder, Rose: “It’s always great to have friends who matter. When I look at my family especially those who have been successful in their lives through Sky Is The Limit Integrated Children’s Centre, I feel great that I have friends all over the world who have done so much to make changes in the lives of the children. I thank my partners of the project who have been by my side to see that success has been achieved. We therefore can’t forget to wish a wonderful 25th anniversary to Ecologia Youth Trust.”
– Rose Mugenyi, founder of Sky Is The Limit
The Allied democratic forces (ADF- a rebel group ) insurgency that had invaded Uganda in the early 1990’s almost took my life. If it wasn’t for Mama Rose who was nursing causalities under Red Cross who picked me up in my infancy, I would be no more! Many thanks to Sky Is The Limit for raising and educating me. I finished college and now looking forward to joining the university.
I chose to offer myself to serve Sky Is The Limit as a way of giving back and saying Thank You to our mother Sky!
I extend My special heartfelt appreciation to Ecologia for supporting Sky Is The Limit in all aspects. 25 years and still growing strong, This is a long way !! I cannot find the right words to express my gratitude at this moment. Hope my feelings are conveyed by my simple smiles and actions.
By the time I joined Sky Is The Limit I had almost lost hope because I had no way of continuing with my education. By good luck, I mysteriously met Mama Rose who took me by her hand and started taking care of me and I continued with my education up to where I am now. It was not her alone, but together with Ecologia sponsors and other friends. Am in the fifth year doing a bachelor’s degree in medicine and surgery at Mbarara University of science and technology. It’s always important to give back from where one receives, and I promise to serve all my patients whole heartedly to change their lives as mine has been changed.
Long live Sky! Long live Ecologia!
Since childhood I have always loved to help the sick and to alleviate their suffering. It’s great that Sky Is The Limit together with Ecologia has made my dreams come true! After my O’ level I joined the nursing school where am in my final year. I will continue to love and serve the sick.
Take a look at this very special video all the way from the Sky Is The Limit Children’s Centre in Uganda!

Susie has 30+ experience as a creative copywriter, editor, and proofreader, starting out as a 20-year-old copywriter in the Mad Men world of early 1990s advertising in South Africa. Ever since, she’s had a love affair with creative conceptualisation, thinking outside of the box, writing to a deadline, and being thrown in the deep end!
She took an MSc in Publishing at Edinburgh Napier University as a mature student, in 2015, and continues to keep herself busy working as a copy-editor, proofreader and copywriter in book publishing, corporate communications, and publishing project management.
Apart from her love of working with independent authors, Susie has a fondness for working in the third sector and likes to use her corporate communications and marketing experience to support projects close to her heart. She has lived and worked in the Findhorn area for 25 years, and has been involved in a number of third sector projects and organisations, and family businesses.
Working at Ecologia Youth Trust helps Susie to live in integrity with her values of supporting the next generation to be the best that they can be, and she sees it as a way to give back to Mama Africa, the beloved continent on which she was born.

Liza is the founder of Ecologia and Director of International Projects. She was born and educated in South Africa and worked there as a high school teacher. She moved to live in the Findhorn Community in 1974. She started Ecologia in 1995 after being introduced to Dmitry Morozov, the founder of Kitezh Children’s Community in Russia, and was inspired to support the community in its mission to rescue orphaned children from institutions and give them homes, families and education in a supportive environment.
This led to projects supporting disadvantaged youth and children in South East Asia and in East Africa. TRead more about Liza’s story here.
