Adjumani Palliative Care Fund

In the midst of total COVID 19 lockdown, women and girls with palliative care needs continue to experience challenges accessing the necessary medical care, psychosocial support and mobility devices. For Joan (Not real name), there was a ray of hope, relief and excitment when a team from Voice for Humanity Uganda visited and supported her with cratches since one of her legs was ampitutated three months ago. To Joan, who is 14 years old and a refugee from south sudan, she had lost hope of continuing with her studies because she did not have any ways to go to school or even go and interract with friends in the neighborhood. Her story is a long and painful one that she could not share it all as the team is still developing trust and friendship with her. She was referred to Voice for Humanity Uganda by a womens refugee leader from Pagirinya refugee settlement who had witnessed the long suffering of Joan and when she had we could support, she was able to refer her for immediate help with the ctaches to help Joan move. Its your financial sacrifices that briong smiles and hope to refugee women and girls who are gpoing through pain, sufferning from chronic illnesses.
