Prince is multilingual, fluent in French, English, Swahili, and Lingala. His diverse background, coupled with his passion for serving others and sharing his faith, shapes his holistic approach to life and work.
Prince encounter with a friend in need of reliable mobility equipment served as a catalyst for realizing the broader issue of accessibility faced by many in similar situations.
By committing to providing a pair of crutches annually to his friend, the founder recognized the profound impact such a simple gesture could have on someone's quality of life. Furthermore, this experience shed light on the larger systemic issue of inadequate access to mobility aids for those with physical disabilities, often resulting in exclusion from various aspects of life.
Driven by compassion and a desire to make a meaningful difference, the founder established One Touch International by linking this to Luke 3:43-48; to address this pressing need. By offering free crutches, feeding scheme, outreach to encourage them with the word of God and wheelchairs to individuals facing mobility challenges, the organization aims to empower them to participate fully in society, pursue opportunities, and provide for themselves and their families.
That is how One Touch International came to be.
