Airtel Uganda, is not only about our telecommunications benefits, but also our social and economic. The company, which is one of the biggest in Uganda, has partnered with the International Institute of Rural Reconstruction (IIRR) to support Girl child education. This initiative is a form of fundraising through a campaign called; “GoatforGirls” and will support the Karamoja region of Uganda to keep their girls getting education.<\/p>\n

This campaign by IIRR, aims at reducing girlchild education in the country, through empowerment of women. It has supported over 2000 girls since. Airtel has handed over about 11,000,000 Uganda shillings for the purchase of 100 goats for girls in the districts of Napak and Moroto.<\/p>\n
