In Loving Memory

Jean Baptiste-Sayinzoga Mukyenga

15 July 1940 – 23 January 2018. A father’s legacy. A daughter’s promise. A mission that lives on.

Jean Baptiste-Sayinzoga Mukyenga
His story

The reason we exist.

The Geraldine Trada Foundation was founded in honour of Jean Baptiste, a beloved father and grandfather.

Diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes at 40, he later developed kidney complications and needed dialysis three times a week for more than a decade, with his daughter Tracey closely involved in his care. He passed away on 23 January 2018, aged 77.

His journey strengthened Tracey’s determination to make a difference. His story is part of our purpose, and his legacy lives through the lives we hope to change.
