A Gift for the Hospital
An ultrasound machine for the ADRA hospital in the refugee camp. The Sonosite M-turbo was donated by a hospital in Austria; I simply transported it and installed it at the hospital built by ADRA Uganda. It is operated by a team of doctors from our partner hospital, Ishaka Hospital. Transporting the Sonosite to Africa wasn’t exactly easy. We had to disassemble the device and cut up the stand so that everything would fit into three large suitcases. The console with the screen […]

Our HelpKids project helps children in Uganda not only through sponsorship of school fees, but also [...]
Lunches for children in Uganda
Children in the Kyaka II refugee camp also receive a hot lunch every day at school. The YIDA school, which we support as part of the HELPKIDS programme, is the only one that provides children with a hot meal every day in addition to their education.
