On behalf of Nurture Africa staff in Ireland and Uganda but most importantly, the 95 families/individuals who have received care, treatment and support as a result of your incredible generosity, I wish to thank you sincerely. The past 16 months have been hugely challenging for Nurture Africa. We continue to adapt to the ever changing situation this year as Uganda enters its second lockdown. While essential from a public health perspective, many families supported by Nurture Africa have been severely impacted by restrictions. Your contribution, has enabled us to maintain vital and life-saving treatment, care and services for the people we exist to serve. 

My very best wishes to you, Kevin Murphy, Project Coordinator, Nurture Africa.
