How to Help
This building is a clinic built by the local Bwashwa community in Uganda and supported by our very own JEGMI. However, we still need medical equipment and supplies! St Andrews church in Canada is doing a fundraiser to try and buy equipments - especially for prenatal and postnatal support. The infant and mother mortality rate in the district is staggering. Please continue reading to see how you can support this fundamental project!
