Airtel Uganda has launched a new campaign dubbed “Uganda Needs More of You”, that seeks to showcase, celebrate and recognise outstanding Ugandans who have utilized the power of technology to positively impact their communities.
The campaign which was launched on Monday at the Kampala Serena Hotel will require participants to share stories of how they have utilized technology to positively impact the lives of others.
The submitted stories shall then be judged by a panel of judges and voted on by the public using the Airtel Mobsite or SMS.
While launching the campaign, Manoj said; “The transformative power of technology is routinely displayed by the growth in digital based services and the number of people included in the ecosystem. Many of these are stories of hard work and resilience of millions of Ugandans with whom Airtel Uganda shares its growth story. Some of the inspiring stories are yet to be discovered, told and celebrated. I am confident that #UGNEEDSMOREOFU campaign will help us discover and celebrate more of these Ugandan stories.”
Uganda Needs More of You Stories will be broadcast on select media houses. On a monthly basis, the stories submitted will be vetted and the top 3 will be selected to proceed to the next stage. The final transformative stories will receive support for their causes.
