Our initiatives

Health

A healthy community makes a happy and productive society. We invest in affordable primary care and stand beside Ugandans in national health campaigns.

Uganda Baati has run a staff clinic since long before the Foundation existed. Today the Chandaria Medical Clinic treats over 20,000 patients a year at little or no cost, and the Foundation extends that care outward through medical camps, maternal-health outreach and partnerships with the country's biggest health campaigns.
