Health Days & Dental Camp
As part of the Global Grant project ‘Kidera - Adopt a Village’, RC Gaba organised a Family Health Day in December 2022 with the help of the Austrian partners, who took over the purchase of medicines.
In the meantime, two further Health Days (two days each) have been organised together with RC Tororo - Sam Owori and with financial support from RC Kitzbühel, RC Bonn-Rheinbogen and RC Innsbruck Alpin. Medicines were purchased from many private donors.
Rtn. Volker Dreike organised a Dental Camp in July 2024, where the team led by Dr Mitesh Badiani (SmileStar from London) spent a week providing dental treatment for people in this region who otherwise have no access or money for dental services.
The SmileStar team worked on a voluntary basis and brought their own equipment from London. The costs for the camp, accommodation and catering were covered by RC Bonn-Rheinbogen, RC Kitzbühel, RC Innsbruck Alpin and private donors. The organisation was handled by RC Tororo - Sam Owori (Rtn. Stephen Owori and Rtn. Dr Jagire Onyango).
Rtn. Agnes Kazibwe Agnes Mukasa has always accompanied the team. She and Medical Officer Remigio Epuwat actively helped - and learnt a lot.
