Uganda 2020: This is a service-oriented trip that will focus on supporting two children’s homes, a primary school and 5 medical clinics. You do not have to be medical to take part in these clinics. We have a number of positions that can be filled by non-medical people from working in registration to assisting patient flow to helping with the dental or ophthalmology clinics. However, most clinics offer alternative activities like working with children at home or school. Our clinics involve both American and Ugandan nurses, doctors, pharmacists and include a dental team and ophthalmology team and a reproductive health team. Our two childrens’ homes are in Mattuga Uganda and Ntuti Uganda. Our primary school is in Matugga also.
