Thanksgiving is a national holiday in the United States, celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November. It originated as a harvest festival. Thanksgiving has been celebrated nationally since 1789, with a proclamation by George Washington after a request by Congress.
With the ever increasing number of Americans in Uganda, the American Chamber of Commerce has always found it prudent to organize the Thanksgiving celebrations for them, Members and well-wishers to come together and celebrate the American way.
This year, more than ever, Thanksgiving will hold more meaning at the end of the year that has immensely challenged the world over.
The Chamber organizes this event through sponsor-ships and donations from its Members and other parties. At the event, raffle draws are held and proceeds given to selects Charity organizations/ NGOs to help the disadvantaged people within our community. This year, the Celebrations will take place on Friday 13th November 2020 at Sheraton Hotel.

We are truly navigating chaos; the pandemic is not going to disappear. We have moved to a recession the like of which we have not seen before, not even the wicked experience of 2008. Given the nature of the crisis, all hands should be on deck, all available tools should be used. In this desolate context, we have provided, and we keep providing support to our customers, as attractively as we can so that from the household to the large corporate, all customers enjoy affordable and reliable access to minimize cost and facilitate the remote learning, working and socializing experience. So this year particularly, we are delighted to share a moment of serenity and the joy of thanksgiving with our good friends of Amcham and its members. We join the community to celebrate the gift of life and family in these harsh times. Together we shall overcome this!
