Jinja Medical Clinic (B/D)

This morning you will set out early from Mbale to Jinja in southeastern Uganda, on the shores of Lake Victoria. We will head straight to the Sole Hope medical clinic to lend a helping hand to their noble cause. Sole Hope focuses on the treatment and eradication of jiggers (a type of parasitic flea) in Eastern Uganda. After seeing the medical clinic we will visit the organisation’s shoe factory to get involved in giving out shoes to the children in the community. Shoes are a crucial defense against jiggers, which burrow into bare feet.

Journey time: 2 hours

Please note:

If you are uncomfortable working at the clinic, you can opt to volunteer at Abide family center, a non-profit whose aim is to keep marginalized children with their families so that they don’t end up in orphanages. They achieve this through the training and mentoring of single moms and foster parents. On arrival to Jinja, Abide will introduce you to these families. You will be divided into smaller groups and a host family will be assigned to each group. At the host family’s home, you will get to engage and interact with the kids, get involved in their daily chores and even share a lunch with the family. A day with these families gives you great insight into local Ugandan culture.

At the end of the day, you will drive back to Kampala for overnight.
