Our project is located near the city of Mbale on a small hill called Golden Hill. The area is green and very beautiful with a view of Mount Wanale. The best way to get here from Mbale Town is by local motorcycle taxi (boda boda).
We are happy to help you with your journey from the airport to Mbale. We can either arrange privat transportation for you if you wish. Or you can take a taxi from the airport to Kampala and then the YY bus from Kampala to Mbale. We will then pick you up in Mbale.
Feel free to ask if you are not sure which is the best option for you!
We are happy that you are interested in our project. Please tell us a little bit about yourself and why you would like to volunteer with us. If you already know, please indicate the length of your stay. If you have any questions, we are happy to assist you and answer them.
