HARRIET NABBAALE

ABA TAANO is a project that has given me joy, happiness and a reason to live. It has helped me meet different kinds of people and new friends who have been so nice to me. The project has helped me pay my school fees and all the needs I have for my studies.  Through this project I have managed to earn a living and take care of myself.  I have also managed to take care of my younger sisters and also pay part of their school fees.

Aba Taano to me means many things. To start with Aba Taano is a home for me because I live with my sisters and brothers. We eat together, sleep under the same roof and share lots of experiences out there where we go, not forgetting, building a life together.

Aba Taano has been the source of my real life and to me it is making my dream a reality. I always thought that I would sing somewhere and people would be happy and pleased and precisely my dream has been made true by Aba Taano. In other words, it has fulfilled my dreams. I have been able to provide for myself, my mother and part of my family members – all thanks to Aba Taano.

Aba Taano is a source of happiness to me in all spheres. I am happy when I travel and meet new people. I have had opportunities to meet far better musicians and I have learnt a lot. For example, I have met Vienna Clarinet Connection, Odhecaton and others. Through this group, I have made many friends through the internet, from the stage and from many other corners of my life out of Uganda.
