Health Programmes

Due to the poor conditions in which they live, our beneficiaries are more susceptible than most to disease and health problems. HIV/AIDS, dysentery, cholera, malaria and tuberculosis are prevalent. However, the area suffers from a lack of quality health care and clinics.

All children sponsored through Uganda Hands for Hope receive regular medical check-ups by our on-site trained medical staff and we host a small clinic, which provides better, subsidised medical care for our beneficiaries and their families. We also provide the community with information on health and sanitation issues.
