Subject: Want to help with the first children’s hospital in Uganda?
I’m writing you today to tell you about an effort I believe in: Holy Innocents Children’s Hospital in Mbarara, Uganda.
In Uganda, 1 child in 7 dies before age 5. In Mbarara District alone, 13,000 children under 5 die every year – thousands more ages 6 to 12. That’s like a jumbo jet full of children crashing every week…. Over 60% of these children die from malaria, respiratory infection and dysentery. These diseases are eminently treatable. Children can be saved if hospitalization and treatment is available. Holy Innocents Children’s Hospital was built in 2009 to save children’s lives.
A San Diego-based non-profit called Holy Innocents Children’s Hospital Uganda Inc.has funded the construction and equipping of a dedicated hospital and surgical center for all the children of Mbarara District – an area the size of Los Angeles County. The hospital is owned and run by the Catholic Diocese of Mbarara, which has an established track record of over 50 years for designing, building and operating hospitals and clinics. Since opening in 2009, the hospital has treated tens of thousands of children with life-threatening illnesses and has treated hundreds of thousands of children for less serious illnesses. The surgical center will open in 2018 and will add significantly to the capabilities of the hospital compound.
Holy Innocents Children’s Hospital has been self-supporting operationally since 2012. However, the hospital and surgical center need additional resources to acquire medical and surgical equipment and expand onsite housing for doctors, nurses and staff.
Holy Innocents is spreading the word about this effort, to generate awareness and funding. Would you take a few minutes to look at their website, www.holyinnocentsuganda.org?
And – VERY IMPORTANT – since Holy Innocents relies heavily on word-of-mouth to get its message out, I’d like to ask you to share this message with your family, friends and colleagues. You can use the sample email text here or write your own message.
Thanks so much for your help!
