Buwanga Way to Health Foundation

I'm raising money for the Buwanga Way to Health Foundation - a health promotion organisation in Eastern Uganda.

This appeal will fund ongoing community work and operational costs. It will help to intensify local health education and screening programs for common potentially life-threatening diseases, especially diabetes, hypertension and cancer (breast and cervical). This work is already taking place in villages, schools, churches and local radio stations.

The money raised will also support local individuals with various medical needs.

In February 2023, Buwanga distributed 1500 mosquito nets, to prevent malaria.

In September 2022, Buwanga organised a free medical camp providing healthcare for a day to 2,500 patients who would otherwise have found accessing healthcare difficult or impossible.

In August 2022, the organisation distributed food to communities impacted by recent flooding that destroyed crops and swept away livestock. It planted trees that will provide nutritious food and withstand floods.

The organisation's founder Wefwafwa Andrew appeared on Ugandan national television in June 2022, where he described his community based approach to preventative medicine.

I have been passionate about this cause since 2021, having learned about Wefwafwa's work on Dr. John Campbell's YouTube channel. I will donate all funds raised here directly to the Buwanga Way to Health Foundation to support the construction of the mill.

Alternative ways to donate are here and here .
