About a month ago, Ubongo signed a contract with Zutrax System Tanzania Ltd. to support last-mile distribution in Tanzania. They secure funding, hire video bandas (local cinemas in villages), and showcase content. We’re now in weekend #5 of our 3-month pilot in Dar (Keko) and Bukoba Vijijini, and the response has been amazing!
In Bukoba, Kitwe Village, the first event was in a Video Banda near the only primary school in the village. However, due to the overwhelming excitement from kids, the school allocated a Saturday classroom for Ubongo Kids screenings!
Attendance has picked up significantly, and the school is now earning a slight revenue boost from these sessions. The show runs every Saturday morning, attracting both school and community kids. We just thought we should share this beautiful story in the making and a great reminder of our impact!
Let’s Keep up the great work.
