Need strong backs and a van: moving Ochieng to safer housing
Moving day on Saturday: we need anyone with a van and ideally a van.
🇺🇬 Kampala, Central Region, Uganda735 views
After the rent increase, I found a safe, affordable apartment in Kampala, and the lease starts on Saturday. I have two children, a few pieces of furniture and no money for movers.
I'm hoping for anyone with a van for about six hours. If you have a van or pickup, that would help enormously - I'll cover fuel.
The old place is on the fourth floor walk-up and the new place has just one flight of stairs. We'll do it in two trips. Lunch and cold drinks are on me.
I know this is a lot to ask of strangers. I'd be happy to share references from my landlord and my employer.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Good luck. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Love from Houston.
hope it all works out, Ochieng. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Blessings.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't give up. Love from Yokohama
Thinking of you, Ochieng. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'll check back for the next update. God bless.
A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. After 14 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything
So sorry you're going through this, Ochieng. Hope this works out for you. We're a small family in Surakarta but we're thinking of you. Take care.
