It’s very hard to try to keep things normal when the situation isn’t normal — especially during global crises like the COVID-19 pandemi. In Uganda more than 8 cases have been reported to-date. One of those things includes adjusting our jobs to working from home, when we’re used to going into the office every day.
In these days of video conferencing, texting, and file sharing, it is thankfully possible for many people to move their workdays to home. In fact, remote working has been a part of many peoples’ lives for years, so while the adjustment can feel difficult, it isn’t impossible.

This includes both general information on working from home, sending money to loved ones, what to watch, and also what bundles to buy to keep you online and informed.
