Ubuntu Elder Care is rooted in years of elder-care work through the Essanyu Lya Mukadde Wange Foundation — the same team, the same values, and the same deep conviction that Uganda's elders deserve dignity, love, and professional support.
We are building Ubuntu to become the primary name for elderly care in Uganda — bringing together awareness, caregiver training, and community health events like the September 21 Dementia Awareness Run.
