Our Partnership Model
Our partners in Uganda support the people of Uganda in many ways. We are impressed by their passion for the people and the success of their work. They are the cornerstones of our work in Uganda.
In our partnership model, these local organizations in Uganda take the lead. In our opinion, this is the only way to work successfully in Uganda in the long term. The entrepreneurs and business ideas are proposed by our partners.
Yimuka supports entrepreneurs in Uganda to create jobs and protect trees through:
- Free advice in the areas of finance and sales strategy
- Loans for the creation or growth of your business
We call the entrepreneurs “changemakers” because they personally drive the actual change. Their work creates additional jobs and contributes to the protection of trees.
