Help Ugandan People Donate Life Saving Blood

We would like to thank you for your generous donation towards this project. Your donation has helped us save many lives of anaemic children and mothers in Uganda.We have so far raised $ 3,490 out of $18,000 as our goal with a balance of $ 14,510. With  that, we would still like to ask for your continous donation towards our project so that we continue saving a life.

We have managed to open up a free sickle cell clinic since last month which is usually open on every Wednesday of the week from 8am -6pm, and this has increased on the number of anaemic patients that we have always treated. The fact that most of the sickle cell patients come in crisis and with completely low HB. Therefore in the last three months, we have treated over 225 anaemic patients.

 We as Whispers Magical Children’s Hospital continue to make good use of the available resources we have, to satisfy our patients to our best possible potential.We are in preparation of starting to check every employee of our hospital's Blood groups so that they can help us with donations in case of crisis especially with those patients with rare blood groups like O negative.

O and A negative are very rare blood groups to get in Uganda yet we keep getting emergencies and referals from other facilities. for example last week we received an 11 year old boy who was rushed in from a government facility for blood and reached him here with a VERY LOW HB of one!! and he was of O negative, good enough we had just received some blood from the blood bank and we immediately had to do a double transfusion on both hands to save his dear life.

Last year we organized a blood donation camp at our hospital and we were able to raise at least 75 units of blood. All those that donated blood were given sugar, rice, biscuits and soda and we are looking forward to repaet it within this year.

We appreciate you so much for your generous donation towards this project. Your donation will help save many lives of anaemic children and mothers in Uganda.

The lock down due to COVID has greatly affected our blood donation drives as schoools that have the biggest blood donors remain closed.  We are no longer able to get the units of blood that we used to get. This has affected many lives in Uganda, leading to death of many patients with diseases like sickle cell anaemia.

Cases of malnutrition continue to rise and they are always referred to our hospital

 We as Whispers Magical Children’s Hospital continue to make good use of the available resources we have, to satisfy our patients to our best possible potential.

In the last three months, we have treated over 150 anaemic patients.

We are deeply grateful to the Blood Bank, both in Jinja and in Nakaseero for their timely support and intervention, each time we contact them for blood they were always available to help.

In December wwe organized a blood donation camp at our hospital and we were able to raise at;least 75 units of blood. All those that donated blood were given sugar, rice, biscuits and soda.

 We would like to appreciate you for your generous donation towards theblood donation drives and we are planning to hold as many blood donation camps as we can so we can be able to raise blood and save the lives of anaemic children and mothers in Uganda.

When we had a scarcity of blood in Jinja, Whisper traveled all the way to Mbarara to bring blood to Jinja! 

The journey was long and not easy (696km in total) but this is what charity is and what charity means!

Now many people will be able to get blood transfusion not only at Whisper.

Thank you so much for your generous donation towards this project. Your donation will help save many lives of anaemic children and mothers in Uganda.
