Volunteers wanted: Mugisha's yard after the storm
Garden rescue day in Kampala: bring gloves and a rake.
🇺🇬 Kampala, Central Region, Uganda562 views
I'm 87 and I have lived in this house in Kampala for 25 years. After the storm in August, two large branches and a fallen fence have blocked the back door and the garden path. I can no longer manage them myself because of a recent fall.
The council has told me it will be eight weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner.
Help needed: two people with loppers and a wheelbarrow. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Best of luck, Mugisha. Your post was clear and honest. My husband and I read this together
Keep going, Mugisha. Get well soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best.
Wishing you the best, Mugisha. I hope things turn around soon. Love from Bogotá.
Hope things get better soon, Mugisha. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Take care.
shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Tel Aviv
