Community Work in Kagera Village



This is to report that on the above date our team visited the family of Rebecca - little poor girl suffereing froma dreaded skin infection in Kagera Village to find out about her life and how she was doing.

Rebecca's skin had improved with a better texture after a one month treatment which Whisper was facilitating her for.

However due to the failure of continuing with the treatment, because of her father and mother were sick and admitted in Jinja Hospital, there felt weak and not able to take Rebecca for her treatment to the special clinic at Bulaba Hospital.

This lead to the infection to intensify and now she needs to be taken back for more treatment.


The Whisper Team went on encouraging this family to take hygiene and sanitation as a serious point, avoiding mosquito breeding places which causes malaria, water logged places, bushes around the house, sweeping the house every day, washing clothes and bathing.

The family and the people in the community were very happy for the lifesaving help being given to this poor girl.
