Many children in Uganda have little or no information about Ebola and how it spreads. During outbreaks, fear, misinformation, and poor hygiene practices can place children and their families at risk. This project will provide Ebola prevention water tanks , hygiene awareness sessions, and safety materials for children in under served communities and schools. The program will help children learn simple ways to stay safe and reduce the spread of infection by putting up hand washing tanks .
Uganda is facing an Ebola outbreak drive, with confirmed imported cases already detected in Kampala. Without a vaccine available for this strain, containment relies entirely on early detection, rapid isolation, and behavior change. Kampala's crowded informal settlements, bustling markets, and transit hubs create high-risk environments for rapid transmission. Misinformation, fear, and economic pressure prevent families from reporting symptoms or self-isolating.
This will project empower GAHOK community and informal workers to lead the response from ground up. Establish managed handwashing stations at GABA HOPE FOR KIDS. Train children safety measures about how to curb down spread of Ebola has it has been recommended by ministry of education in Uganda that all organisations should put up washing materials .
Your donation will ensure all children in the Gaba hope community are free from Ebola. Thanks for your continued support.
