One of Uganda’s largest private charitable foundations has invited their alumni for a meeting at Hotel Africana this week to build a strong network of graduates who benefited from the educational programs and scholarships awarded to deserving students. A new Madhvani Alumni Students Association was, in fact, launched during the meeting to facilitate intensified post graduate relations between beneficiaries of the various programs, as well as support them further in their careers.

These now also include students in the tourism and hospitality sectors, which makes it of interest to this column, of course – always in pursuit of better facilities and opportunities for training, manpower development, and skills transfers. Visit www.madhvanifoundation.com for more details.
