“We shall work with this team to extend the project all over the country and it will run for five years,” Rajiv said on Friday, December 6 during the groundbreaking ceremony for the construction of toilets and other sanitary facilities in Kamwokya’s Good Samaritan Primary School. The project, which is carried out using plastic bottles collected from the slum is expected to improve sanitation in the area.

This year, the annual Royal Ascot Goat races took place on October 12, 2019, at Speke Resort in Munyonyo, attracting some of the biggest names in the country.

Cash collections from the event in 2018 funded Totos Tag Rugby and Outreach programme benefiting. Under the programme 250 children were supported to train at the Kyadondo Rugby Club.
