Dear Donors,
Thank you for your continued interest in our project, Provide Medical Help for Disabled People with HIV+. We remain fully committed to supporting disabled individuals living with HIV in the urban slums of Mararaba and Masaka, where the need for accessible and dignified healthcare remains urgent.
Our goal is to deliver free medical care, wheelchairs, stigma-free mobile clinics, and HIV education in local languages. These services are essential for people who face daily barriers such as hospital rejection, lack of mobility aids, and limited knowledge about HIV prevention and treatment.
At this stage, we want to provide a clear update on project readiness and resource needs. The funds received so far, though deeply appreciated, are not yet enough to launch the core medical and mobility support activities as initially planned. The cost of assistive devices, clinical supplies, trained personnel, and mobile clinic operations remains significant. Because of this, we are currently assessing smaller-scale implementation options that the available funds can cover without compromising service quality or patient safety.
We are deeply grateful to our early donors. Your trust motivates us to push forward despite the financial limitations. We kindly appeal to you to help broaden awareness by sharing our project link with colleagues, friends, and networks. Increased visibility will bring us closer to the full funding needed to start delivering the life-saving care this community urgently deserves.
Thank you for standing with us.
Regards,
Joy O. Etubi
