MTN Uganda has reaffirmed
its commitment to supporting communities through initiatives aimed at improving
access to essential services and creating shared value across the country.
Speaking during the
company’s 21 Days of Y’ello Care activities at Kiyunga Health Centre IV, MTN
Uganda CEO Sylvia Mulinge said the company views itself as a development
partner and remains committed to contributing to the wellbeing of the
communities it serves.
Mulinge said MTN’s
involvement in community initiatives is driven by its commitment to giving back
and responding to the needs of Ugandans who continue to place their trust in
the telecommunications operator.
She noted that connectivity
remains an important driver of social and economic transformation, particularly
by linking people to information, services and opportunities.
The CEO said the company’s
community engagement efforts form part of its broader approach to creating
sustainable impact beyond its core telecommunications business.
The activities at Kiyunga
Health Centre IV were held under MTN’s 21 Days of Y’ello Care initiative, an
annual programme through which the company and its employees participate in
community-focused activities across Uganda.
