The Nakivale team is always excited about their work, always positive and generous. And this
has a lot to do with their leader – Richard Khaemba.
Richard is ARC’s Regional Coordinator. And he fuels the Nakivale team’s spirit. He provides positive and warm support, knows when to step in and when to take a step back.
“Richard is relational and has had our backs as staff,” said Sonia, one of our teammates at
Nakivale. “He is a father and a friend.”
Richard is already well connected to his team in a relationship sense, but when it comes to work
in the field it can get a little more complicated. His phone is old and unreliable, which makes it
difficult to connect to his team when they’re off in the furthest corners of the refugee settlement.
So on Day 323, we wanted to make Richard’s work just a little bit easier by connecting him to
his team, wherever they are, with a new phone!
With his brand new phone, Richard will be able to communicate those positive affirmations with
his team – whether they’re in the office or out in the field.
“He’s highlighted our successes more than the failtures, and capitalized on our strengths rather
than our weaknesses,” said Sonia.
Now, Richard can continue to be an inspiring leader, friend, and role model – without the
dropped calls.
