Our Story
iFamile Emu Children’s Center was founded June 2014 by Akol Benyamen Jayjay with the help of 친구등록 and Anyango Maureen. The idea for the organization was born when Akol and 친구등록 visited the rural orphan children in Bukedea-Uganda. During this visit Akol saw many children under child labour with little to no access to basic necessities. Since then Anyango has remained actively involved as a Co-founder whilst Akol remains the heart and soul of iFamile Emu. It was at this time that he was so much moved with compassion and decided to start the iFamile Emu Children’s Center.
iFamile Emu means “One Family” in Luganda (It’s the most language used in the central Uganda). We have made all the necessary efforts to bring up the children as members of one family despite coming from different backgrounds. This makes our center stand out from the others because we care deeply not only for feeding, sheltering, clothing and educating them but we also care about the family values we are instilling in them at this early stage of their development. iFamile Emu strongly believes that working together as a family we can make a difference to the future of the children in our care today.

However, people relied on each other for support.

Source: San Diego Free Press, a post in a series by Maria E. Garcia, “The
History of Neighborhood House in Logan Heights : The Construction of a
Community Oven”
In the 1930’s, some houses in Logan Heights, San Diego
did not have ovens, so women would gather at the
community oven at the Neighborhood House to bake and
socialize twice per week. When the community was done
baking, some women were allowed to put beans or meat in
the oven to cook overnight.
and found ways to share limited cooking
resources.

daily bread to 65 men, women, and children. circa 1933

5. And generally, beyond food and cooking,
people got through many of life’s difficulties and
challenges
TOGETHER,
WITH THE HELP OF OTHERS
in order to survive poverty, geographic
remoteness, or scarce resources.
6. TODAY, there are a few places in the world
where these shared cooking and eating
experiences are still the norm, and a part of
daily life.
Sri Harmandir Sahib (the Golden Temple) in Amritsar, Punjab, India
runs one of the largest free kitchens in the world, serving on average
100,000 people daily. The meal consists of flat bread and lentil soup.
7. But, for the most part, things are a bit
different in the world today.
8. Thanks to many modern conveniences such as
grocery stores and well-equipped kitchens, life is a
little easier, but when it comes to shopping for and
cooking our food, we tend to be all alone in our
efforts!

9. And this reflects something happening on a
much broader scale. The world has become a
place where independence and self-sufficiency
are valued, and where individual achievement
and accumulation are emphasized.

ways technology can connect us, loneliness and
isolation are the greatest sufferings of modern
times.
19. Okinawans are some of the longest
living, and happiest people in the world
— in part, because they have a well
integrated system of group camaraderie
and networks of deep support that are a
part of their culture!
20. MOAI
Networks of Deep Support
In his book “The Blue Zones of Happiness”, Dan Buettner
discusses this Okinawan concept of “Moai” which means
‘meeting for a common purpose’. As part of the Okinawan
culture, small groups, each comprised of roughly five people,
often who have been together in the same group throughout
their entire lives, form a network of friendship and deep support
for each other.

21. The concept of ‘Moai’ has practical
origins. These small groups were
formed so that its members could pool
resources, basically to pool monies so
someone in the group could afford to
repair their house or start their own
business.
22. However, these groups, with their frequent
meetups from a few times a week to sometimes
daily, have grown into something much more
meaningful. Moai provides a social connection
and a source of deep support to its members in
many aspects of their lives — financial, health, and
spiritual. They come together regularly to have
tea, chat, and have fun. The mood is often light-
hearted and playful. It is part of the reason
Okinawans are some of the longest-living and
happiest people in the world!
24. According to “The Little Book of Hygge” by Meik Wiking,
the Founder of the Happiness Research Institute, Hygge
is defined in several ways: coziness; the art of creating
beautiful atmosphere; the pursuit of everyday happiness;
and also “socializing for introverts”.
It is about being together with, and close to the people
you love, and seeing them with your heart. It is about
relaxation, indulgence, good food, and gratitude.

Some takeaways from these two inspiring cultural practices are:
27. So in the spirit of Moai and Hygge
How about having some social occasions and face-
to-face meetups centered around pooling
resources!
Let’s meet life’s challenges

28. There are plenty of opportunities to create your small groups.
Splitty groups can be built around
“How can we save money
on meals?” $$
PROBLEMS TO SOLVE:
STUDENT LOANS
29. DIETS:
“We want to try a
plant-strong diet
to improve our health.”
“Doctor said I need to lose
weight to control my diabetes.”
“I should eat healthy and
change my lifestyle.”
“Because of my recent heart
attack, my doctor says I should
start on a plant-strong diet.”
30. COMMON INTERESTS:
“When we see each other
at our regular meetup, let’s
share some items.”
Basketball pick-up games
play dates - mothers with
young children
Senior Bowling League
Friends who enjoy
Italian food & culture
31. CLOSE PROXIMITY:
“We see each other regularly,
or live close by,
so let’s share food or household
supplies!”
Neighbors in
same building
Co-workers in the same Office
32. Of course, little shares and splits of food and
snacks could mean just that and no more…
plainly, just food and savings,
but, to some who are feeling alone and lonely in life,
it could mean so much more, if the food came
alongside
a warm smile,
a friendly conversation,
& a helping hand.
33. We believe that when we pool resources
and share food, fortuitous connections and
camaraderie can happen!
Splitty’s Mission:
Facilitate ‘little shares’ that inspire
camaraderie and connection
in small groups around the world
34. Be Social.
Be a Splitter.
