Why we need your Help!!!!.
-There is no Sickle Cell Center in Uganda, this will be the first one.
-The Association office is in a small contain with ply wood inside
-Also the Sickle Cell Clinic is in deplorable situation
-Often there is patient over flow with lack of any emergency medical equipments
-This only ply wood sickle cell clinic in Uganda has mold and fungi growing in all crevices
-The pediatric and adult patients are all seen in the same small ply wood office for counseling without privacy
-The Association has no toilet therefore it shares it with the clinic.
-There is no running water
-Most certainly there is no political will to change the situation quo
***Because of the trauma the sickle cell patients face on a daily basis, we are asking you to join us build a center with a standard sickle cell day care, private counseling rooms,labs etc.

 

Yes you can end the suffering of sickle cell patients in Uganda. Please join us and help donate towards  this noble cause!

Every minute sickle cell disease claims a life of a child in Uganda!
