About Us
iKitty Life is a startup organization registered with registrars of companies on 27th Sept. 2019. The organization is founded by 3 individuals i.e. Ms. Rashida Muse Moseka, Ms. Atizuyo Janeth and Mr. Godwin Ocen who were angered by the high rate of teenage pregnancies in refugees’ settlements and hosting communities of West Nile region of Uganda and hungrily developed teen-centred programs to reduce the statistics.
