The YMCA in Uganda was founded in 1959. It has six main branches, including Kampala YMCA . Other branches are in Jinja, Uganda Jinja , Mukono , Mbale , Mbarara , Kasese . History The first mention of a YMCA in Uganda was made in a 1913 report of the World Alliance. The matter rested until 1947, when the World Alliance of YMCAs in Geneva sent Dr. George Haynes to investigate the possibilities for YMCAs in Africa. He met in Uganda E. M. K. Mulira. As a result the present site for the Headquarters, currently in the Kampala YMCA building there, was chosen. Later, in 1959, a meeting on 12 June convened by A. R. Russell, then acting director of African Housing , and with nine people attending, discussed the formation of the Uganda YMCA. A further meeting on 28 July was chaired by Dr. Leslie Brown, Bishop of Uganda , and the first committees were appointed. The World Alliance then dispatched Merlin Bishop to Uganda and on the strength of his report the YMCA of the USA showed interest in the formation of the Uganda YMCA. Two fraternal secretaries were sent in response to a January 1960 application of the formation committee. Dan. P. Tyler arrived in Uganda in 1961 and started the YMCA at Kampala. Moses Perry in October 1962 started the branch at Jinja. In May 1965 a third branch was opened in Mbarara and the fourth branch was at Gulu .
