In Memory of Jose Enciso
Sponsored by Luena Foundation and Barbara W. Shank
The Enciso Block stands as a lasting tribute to the life and legacy of Jose Enciso—a man whose kindness, love, and spirit of service continue to inspire and uplift communities.
At See Them Grow Foundation, we believe that one of the most beautiful ways to honor someone’s life is to continue the values they stood for. The Enciso Block represents that belief: a lasting legacy built not only in memory of Jose, but for the benefit of generations to come.
Through the generous support of the Luena Foundation and Barbara W. Shank, this important facility has become part of See Them Grow Foundation’s growing educational and community development infrastructure in Luuka District.
The block provides a safe and supportive environment where children and young people can learn, grow, and build a better future. Every classroom and every young person who passes through its doors carries forward a small part of the legacy that inspired its creation.
The name Enciso will therefore remain connected to opportunity, education, and community transformation.
We are profoundly grateful to the Luena Foundation and Barbara W. Shank for helping us preserve Jose Enciso’s legacy in such a meaningful and practical way. Their generosity ensures that his memory is not simply remembered—it is lived through acts of service and opportunities created for others.
The Enciso Block is a reminder that kindness can outlive a lifetime, that love can cross borders, and that a life dedicated to serving others can continue to make a difference long after someone is gone.
Jose Enciso’s legacy continues—not only in our memories, but in the lives of the children and communities who will benefit from this gift for years to come.
