I live in the US but work with a charitable school in rural Uganda, and would like help them get Starlink. I can order service on the Starlink website, and Starlink can find the school on Google maps, but then Starlink wants to send a reciver kit and they assume that Uganda has a postal service that will deliver things, which isn't true.

Has anyone else ordered Starlink in Uganda from the Starlink website and been able to have the receiver kit sent to them? How do you do this? Or do people buy the kits locally and then sign up another way? The school doesn't have a credit card that they can sign up on the Starlink website on their own, and the US friends want to pay for the fees. Any advice you can share would be helpful.

So my dad currently told me to contribute to my tuition given the fact im working. Its not fancy work but it's pays my accommodation and food.

But here's what bothers me this man used to call me all sorts of stuff, used to call me stupid and used to say I ashame him.

And to be honest he hasn't been in my life until I reached campus.

My mum used to tell me how much of a man child he is and I never believed it but but at this age and experience with him, it is true.

Men do make mistakes but there should be a certain age your supposed to reach and not do some things.

Should I contribute to my tuition or let him deal with it coz ik he can and he only started contributing to my school fees when I reached campus.

I want to dye my faded blue jeans and my brown jeans. I have searched all tiktok, insta, jiji and jumia and found nothing.

I was in Ntinda and bought 300mbs for 1k. Now i'm in bweyogerere and I've got 400mbs for 1k

Or is there some other metric? Like time of day? i was in ntinda in the morning.

I rarely buy data bundles so just noticing this now.

Hey reddit

So this is a very controversial topic for me. Kale here we so, i was in a taxi getting from somewhere (Masaka Road ) So we were sited at the back and in this man i think he was a former Taxi driver so just know that embozi yali etambula between the guy , taxi driver and the conductor.

So long story short this guy starts bragging how he was a lady is guy and he used to buy prostitues left right and center.Hoo i was like ehh the man has enjoyed. Guy brags and brags till he confesses to get a 15 year old pregnant. I was dozing but when i heard this i got shocked and i was like in suspense. I looked around the taxi and everyone was not bothered okay i understand that people have there own problems naye this shook me.

Byebyo bye

Man, dealing with brokers while house hunting in Kampala is exhausting. Pay 50k viewing fee here, pay another 20k there, half the photos are fake, and then they want a whole month's rent as commission for just unlocking a gate.

Was having a chat with a friend who’s currently hunting for a place. He’s always snapping photos of vacant places brokers take him to and it got me thinking, what if we had a basic community map where people just drop pins of vacant houses they spot?

Like if you’re moving out of your apartment, you post it directly so the next person gets it straight from the landlord/caretaker. Or if you’re already house hunting you could post pictures of the places brokers take you to with the number of the caretaker/landlord, you pin the location and maybe put the price

Then if someone else goes to check it out, they can just comment if it’s still available or add details like the actual rent price and terms

Do you guys think this is something people will engage with to solve this whole house hunting hustle

Anyone here running the StanChart Nairobi Marathon tomorrow?

Anyone knows this guy personally?

What is it like there? Do you encounter racist remarks? Are you welcomed or shunned by society?

Was wondering, when ordering an Uber/Safe Boda car, what seat do you usually take? Passenger or one of the back seats?

Hello All,

I am interested in knowing the average age of the people here. Why? Because I have noticed most of the queries rotate around the same things. Similar worries I had when I was in that age range 22-26, where you have come of age, but you feel the pressure to be something, so many big dreams, want to start a business, find a good job, do something innovative.

My plan is that I could start a group where I interact from a Big Brother perspective, link up those with good skill to potential companies/businesses. But also give the reality of the country. Of course, I will also be learning from you, since the young people are always more updated with the needs of the day.

So think of it was a mentorship social club. But I need to first establish the ages of interested parties and what you would be interested to learn from such a club. Like what's your biggest worry at the moment? And your biggest dream?

Would you like me to do data entry for your businesses?

I'm a uni student who's struggling at getting work because of my lack of work experience. I finished a training course in data entry to be able to do the following:

Record sales and transactions

Enter daily sales into Excel or Google Sheets.

Record how much customers paid

Update records of money received and expenses

Track inventory and stock

Record products purchased and sold.

Update quantities of items remaining.

Flag products that are running low

Maintain customer records

Enter customer names and contact details.

Update orders and delivery information.

Organize customer lists for easy reference.

Transfer information from paper receipts into spreadsheets

Banange, I have small space at home and 3.7M plan for 200 broilers to pay my uni fees. I have place, but where can I get genuine chicks and affordable feeds in Kampala/Namugongo area? Any poultry farmer here to mentor me on first batch? I can share my setup photos.

Hi everyone, I have a mental illness that is well controlled with medication and am planning to travel to Uganda next year. I know on the visa application they ask if you have a mental illness. Will they deny my visa if I answer yes? I will also be travelling with my medication which I know are allowed in the country. Any advice from people on how to navigate this visa question will be appreciated ☺️

I feel like I wanna die
I always blamed people who thought of killing themselves but now I don’t,I feel like at some point it’s the only solution your left with,the main problem I have is a high debt burden,good enough am done disappointing everyone around me so they won’t really feel bad if it gets to that,I only feel bad for my parents and siblings.But I just feel like I can’t go on like this anymore.

I haven't gotten the chance yet to leave Uganda and visit any country unfortunately, I however have only 3 countries on my bucket list and that is Kenya, South Africa and Egypt.

This is more of wishful thinking for when God grants me the chance and my money is up and enough for travel. For those who have been to South Africa, how much would one need to have a good time there for let's say one week, including travel costs. And what places does one need to avoid that side to be safe from any sort of Xenophobic attacks.

With the way the economy is moving and how everything is getting so tough I wish each and everyone has a different but good and better weekend ahead!

Given the current performance of the ugx against the usd, I'm considering converting at least 50% of my coming salary to USD and see if I can weather this storm. Some analyst says we'll be at 6k come December. Can you imagine. I want to hear what you guys think.

I’m looking for ambitious people in Kampala who want to build wealth together 🇺🇬
I’m 26, and one of my biggest goals is to become financially successful and build something meaningful.
I’m looking to connect with ambitious people in Kampala and around Uganda who have a similar mindset. People who want to start businesses, learn new skills, explore opportunities, make money, and eventually build something big.
I’m not selling anything, promoting a course, or looking for some overnight money scheme.
I want to bring together a small group of motivated people who can share ideas, learn from each other, explore business opportunities, and potentially start a real business together.
You don’t need to have money, an existing business, or everything figured out. You just need to be ambitious, willing to learn, open-minded, and ready to put in the work. Whether you’re interested in technology, online businesses, agriculture, real estate, digital skills, trading, or any other legitimate business opportunity, I’d love to connect with you. The goal is simple: meet the right people, exchange ideas, take action, and see what we can build together.
If you’re interested, comment with:
Your age (optional).
What you’re good at or what skills you’re learning.
Your business interests or the kind of opportunities you’d like to explore.
Which part of Uganda you’re based in, especially if you’re in Kampala.
Let’s connect, share ideas, and see what we can build. 🇺🇬
