NAMCA AGM 2010 Partnership for Developing Masaba Land NAMCA and Our Mission Our mission is to promote the Bagisu culture and language, improve the well-being of Bamasaba in North America and in Uganda. To promote education and economic empowerment of Bamasaba, foster research and innovations, and unite all Bamasaba in the pursuit of common objectives. NAMCA remains a cultural association and by the nature of its registration in the USA and in Uganda, it is a non-profit organization. In the past two years the association has evolved from a cultural, social networking organization and has increasingly taken up a development focus by spearheading a number of projects in Uganda. It remains a major goal of the association to implement those projects it has embarked on and to partner with donor agencies in the initiation of even more projects that will have a lasting, sustainable and visible effect in our communities.
