Dear Project of the Month Club Member,
Did you know that malaria is still the leading cause of death in Uganda? Although this disease is both curable and preventable, high healthcare costs and a lack of education mean that many people across the country still become ill, particularly in rural communities.
Our July Project of the Month, Kagumu Development Organization, is helping families stay safe by educating mothers on malaria prevention, as well as providing free mosquito nets and treatment. Their project Save 750 Pregnant Women from Malaria in Uganda focuses on the Kibuku district, a rural region where communities often struggle to access much-needed healthcare.
To learn more about how the Kagumu Development Organization is helping families in Uganda stay healthy, check out their most recent report.
Thank you for your commitment to a better world!
Warmly,
Donna Callejon
