Healthy living ranges from the diet consumed to the general lifestyle of an individual. Within the Sanitation and Health care program, we provide services to people in communities that directly link to the improvement of their health. This ranges from the Promotion of sanitation in communities, Sexual Reproductive Health, Menstrual hygiene, mental health awareness, and peer-to-peer learning. In line with SDG3 (Sustainable development Goal 3) of  the United Nations Development Program, Love Uganda Foundation seeks to ‘Promote good health and well-being.”

ACTIVITIES UNDER SANITATION & HEALTH CARE PROGRAM

1. Luf Health Care Activity.

It came to our notice that there are limited hospitals in the areas of Kazinga, Lukyamu, Kakola, Nkakwa, Bunyiri, Kasala, Nkonge, and Kitana when we carried out a Dental Camp in Partnership with Reeves Medical Center.

Thousands of People in this area move up to 2 hours of walking to reach a hospital with standardized health services and they have to pay.

In an interview with one of the Vulnerable women in this area, she said that “Due to high poverty in these areas and medical services are expensive for them, they resort to using local herbs to cure themselves however these herbs are not 100% reliable for curing diseases which have caused increased death of children and Parents more especially those living with HIV/Aids thus increasing in number of Orphans and Vulnerable Children in these areas.” and. In this case, many Vulnerable parents fail to seek medical assistance for their children when they are sick.

Our team became so anxious about this matter, And After the Dental Camp, we started arranging door-to-door Medical assistance and check-ups free of charge to Vulnerable People more Especially Children and Elderly people in partnership with Reeves Medical Professional Doctors and Nurses.

Pregnant Mothers are given antenatal services, Children are immunized, and children found sick are given medicine, Our door-to-door Medical assistance has so far been successful in the area of Bunyiri.
