$25,800 IS NEEDED
to help us build the DEACON PIERCE SHEEHAN MATERNITY & PEDIATRIC WARD for the St. Philomena Clinic in KASESE, UGANDA!
The Kasese region of Uganda is a stunning mountainous area, but it is prone to mudslides and floods. The closest hospital is 40 kilometers away over terrible roads and terrain, making it difficult for pregnant women and sick children to reach it.
In 2018, the St. Philomena Clinic asked for help, and the MAAP Foundation responded by providing medical supplies and a microscope.
This year, the 5th-grade class at St. Raymond’s raised $5,000 to start a pig farm. The aim is to help the community generate income to purchase medicine for the overcrowded clinic. Additionally, they raised $5,000 which started the campaign for the Deacon Pierce Clinic.
Now, St. Philomena urgently needs an additional $15,000 to construct a maternity and pediatric ward, and we need your help!
YOUR DONATION WILL HELP PROVIDE KASESE, UGANDA MOTHERS AND CHILDREN:
- Maternity care for the poor
- Medicine to treat pediatric diseases and sickness
- Medical care in their mountainous region where government hospitals are very difficult to get to
- Special care for females and will alleviate overcrowding
