Two years later, the singer has decided to start a charity foundation, something he had always wanted.

It is said that Keron loved kids and did not want to see them suffer in anyway, so his dream was to help vulnerable kids, especially those on the streets.

We are told that the Keron Kabugo Foundation is Juliana’s way of remembering her son by doing something he was passionate about. The foundation’s logo is in Keron’s handwriting.
