Who qualifies for SAGE in Uganda?

Through the grant, the government gives out a monthly stipend of UGX 25,000 to persons aged above 80 years in different parts of the country.

In March, 2016, the Ministry of Gender, Labour & Social Development signed a contract with PostBank Uganda as the new Payment Service Provider (PSP) for the Senior Citizens Grants. Post Bank Uganda took over the payment service provider role from MTN who had hitherto delivered the grants using MTN Mobile Money.
