I serve in a village called Munganga where water is a challenge to majority of the Families. The villagers fetch water from stagnant holes around posing a serious danger to especially mothers and children. It has led to various deceases and infections. I pray that there could be a way such communities can be assisted out of such a condition for a better and decease free living.
I work with Uganda development and health associates (UDHA), a non-governmental organisation in Eastern Uganda. One of our main activities is to encourage pregnant women to deliver from a clean and safe delivery area; essentially a health facility. Unfortunately none of the health clinics for these women has running water at the maternity unit. I need your help for this community to get out this situation. Thank you
