Malaria at Oberabic

Malaria on the Rise

Malaria is on the rise in the Gulu area because house spraying
has stopped. We do not know why this has happened.

Consultation

This little girl is ill and has been brought to Nurse Chris. Note Mum is pregnant - Family planning is a big need which we are attending to.

Before we were involved all such patients were given malaria treatment leading to stock outs, missed diagnosis and waste of money. Now each patient has a finger prick test that makes a clear diagnosis

Happy Mum!   

Team

MONEY MAGIC

Three Easy Ways to Help Now

Will you spare the time?
Check out: "Give as you Live." No cost to you. 

Why Help?

Lives are saved. In March 2013, one of our antenatal patients chose not to have her child at the HC and like many others, died in labour. As we develop our unit, more will come and lives will be saved. We also save lives by providing easy access centres to treat malaria and gastroenteritis.

Illnesses healed. Without our help guy's like this go blind - all for the sake of eye drops and advice. In Africa malnutrition and poor hygiene means small illnesses often become major . This conjunctivitis in Africa can lead to Trachoma and blindness. Our project is working in Uganda so more lads can get advice and drops and not go blind.

     

How to Help? - Just takes some time.
