JINJA | MAYOR | CHRISMAS | BOOSTED 

Jinja City Mayor Alton Peter Kasolo has received a consignment of goods and shillings worth two million from Kakira Sugar Limited (KSL). 

The donation is for the mayor's Christmas alms to needy children and the city's poor.

The items, which included 300 kg of sugar and 100 kg of assorted Kakira sweets, were handed over to Kasolo by KSL joint managing director Mayur Madhvani and company secretary, S.K. Iyengar, at the factory on Wednesday.

Madhvani Donation

It’s the norm that during Christmas, the mayor gives alms to street children, patients in Jinja Hospital, orphanages, and the destitute home in Mpumudde. Some of the items are contributed by industrialists and the business community.

While handing over the items to the mayor, Madhvani said they all need to celebrate every Christmas, and Kakira is part of the community, which is why they catered to the less privileged members of the community during the festive season.

Kasolo was thankful to KSL for the Christmas donation and urged other industrialists and investors in the city to do the same and give back to the less privileged during this festive season.
