Recently, the cooperative organized a community service event that brought together local leaders and residents to clean up the neighborhood.
The Community Cleanup
On May 10, 2023, the Nakinyuguzi Patriots team, along with local leaders including the LC1 Chairman, LC3 Chairman, Woman Councillor, Youth Councillor, and other community members, rolled up their sleeves and got to work. The focus of the cleanup was to improve the cleanliness and overall appearance of the area.
The team tackled various tasks, including:
- Roadside litter: Clearing away debris and trash from the roadsides to enhance the aesthetic appeal and safety of the community.
- Trench cleaning: Removing dirt, leaves, and other obstructions from the trenches to prevent flooding and ensure proper drainage.
- Public spaces: Cleaning common areas such as parks, playgrounds, and public squares to make them more inviting and enjoyable for residents.
