Who are Hypers Kids Africa on 'AGT' Season 19?
Hypers Kids Africa is a Ugandan NGO founded by Butindo Moses and his friends with the goal of empowering underprivileged children through dance and creativity. The organization was born out of Moses' own experiences growing up in difficult circumstances, including the loss of his parents and a period of living on the streets.
While on the streets, Moses discovered his passion for football, using his skills to earn food and money. Together with their friends, they founded Hypers Kids Africa, initially focusing on using dance, music and sports to generate income for themselves as well as support their community.
Their efforts have expanded to include creating opportunities for street children to learn valuable skills, earn an income, and gain access to basic needs such as food and healthcare. Hypers Kids Africa is now looking to expand its reach to more children in need, with a focus on providing educational opportunities through their participation in the 19th season of 'AGT.'
Who is the founder of Hypers Kids Africa?
The inception of 'Hypers Kids Africa' can be attributed to the unwavering perseverance of Butindo Moses, who encountered immense adversities in his formative years.
Moses was raised amidst familial turmoil, grappling with the absence of his father and enduring the heartbreaking loss of his mother and sister. By the year 2010, he found himself destitute, residing on the streets and battling for survival on a daily basis.
In a time of hardship, Moses found comfort and a newfound love for football. He honed his skills in tricks and juggling to earn food and money, forming deep connections with friends like Marvin and Abdul along the way.
When Moses faced an injury, Marvin and Abdul not only took him to the hospital but also stood by his side throughout his recovery. Once healed, Moses shared his dreams with Marvin, Abdul, and other friends who continued to offer unwavering support.
