Suubi Trust

In March Suubi Trust met the cost for 272 patients treated at the Lira Clinic. This is a slight increase over previous months, probably reflective of the start of the rainy season. That brings the total treated so far this year to 645.

Of these patients, 73 were five years or under (27%) and 47 between 6-15 years old (17%).

Malaria and related conditions are by far the most prevalent with 118 patients (43%) being treated.

230 (84%) of our patients were referred from 9 sources as follows:

1. Victory Outreach Church 38
2. Lira Primary School 35
3. St. Philips Church 31
4. Lira Main Mosque 27
5. St. John Bosco Church 25
6. Lira Cathedral 23
7. Montensori Nursery 20
8. Dokolo Chapel 17
9. Christian Renewal Church 14

A big thank you to the staff at the clinic including; Sophie, Ambrose, Kenneth, Mosesand Samuel. You can read more about them here…

It costs us just £7.50 to provide care to our patients and the clinic has a monthly capacity to provide such treatment for about 200 patients. In 2008 we need to raise £18,000 which will treat 2,400 patients. So far we have raised more than £11,000 from the following sponsors:

• Aspect Capital
• Port-P
• Wesleyan Assurance
• St. Peter’s Methodist Primary School
• Kuvuka

Of course that means that we are still seeking sponsorship to meet the remaining £7,000, which we will need before the end of this summer.

You can help by letting others know about us and by giving whatever you can; there are a number of different ways in which you can make a donation, including doing so online, just click here for more information…

Remember just £7.50 can provide life changing treatment…
