Construction
The people of Eastern Uganda have a dire need for better healthcare, including general and specific diagnoses, as well as timely treatment. However, there are very few healthcare centers, and those that exist are poorly staffed and under stocked. The hope is that this need can be addressed through the Hope & Healing Center (HHC) - a large, fully stocked and locally integrated hospital in the Iganga District, a region of more than 500,000 people.
