Meet Patricia who graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Tourism and Travel Management. We thank her sponsor for changing her life.

ChangeALife Uganda thanks the generous parishioners of St. Aloysius for donating to our “HUGanda” Event. The $1173 in donations will support children who are at risk of losing funding for their education. We also extend a special welcome to three new children’s sponsors Noreen , Vera and Maureen. How special Valentine’s Day will be for three of our children in Uganda. Meet one of them, Brenda K. whose photo spoke to the heart of her new sponsor, Noreen. Brenda's family lives in a rented house and her mother sells milk to sustain the family. ChangeALife Uganda welcomes donations at every level. Please visit our website www.ChangeALifeUganda.org

First baby was delivered by C-Section at St. Francis Health Center! Sarah, a mother pregnant with her second child received her prenatal care at St. Francis Health Center. Sarah had delivered her first baby by caesarian section but wanted to deliver her second baby vaginally. By 7pm, despite her contractions having increased she failed to progress. At 8pm the health team with Sarah’s agreement decided to deliver the baby by caesarean section. At 8.30pm, Sarah received spinal anesthesia and at 8.55pm Dr. Patrick delivered a healthy baby boy 6.6.lbs (3.0kg) by C/Section. Postoperatively Sarah recovered well and was discharged in good health smiling with her beautiful baby boy. The ability to perform C/Sections is an signifcant step in St. Francis Health Center becoming a center of excellence for Maternal and Child Health.

On behalf St. Lawrence School community, Headmaster Andrew Weisige wrote to extend “appreciation for the continued remittance of school fees for the sponsored learners. It is a great scheme towards the future of these children."

"Thank you very much for the support we received to enable our school choir to participate in this year's national music festivals. St. Lawrence School choir finished second at the regional level and 14th out of 45 choirs in the national competition.

There was no way we would have made it to national level without you funding help.”

Congratulations St. Lawrence School students and teachers. We are very proud of you!

We thank you CALU for a visionary and humanitarian service

To our dear sponsors and well-wishers, CALU would like to thank you for the tremendous support towards the sponsored learners and more especially to St. Lawrence Primary School Migyera. Last year, 35 pupils sat for Primary Leaving Exams(P.L.E 2017) and 19 students past in Division One while 16 passed in Division 2. Out of the 35 pupils, 18 were sponsored learners and 10 passed in Div I while 8 passed in Div 2.

In Nabbingo area, out of the 18 pupils who sat for PLE, 4 pupils passed in Div 1 while 14 passed in Div 2.
We are forever grateful for the support.

A great exchange visit by team from MUSANA ORG. to Change A Life Uganda.

Stop #6 on our leadership learning trip: Change A Life Uganda. They were so welcoming and organised. We were amazed to learn how they are partnering with the government to improve education in the community!

In a bid to improve health service delivery at St. Francis Health Centre III at Migyera, the health administrator-Dr. Patrick Kasendwa is seen holding a meeting with the Village Health Team(VHT) members who provide information regarding health issues and easily reach community members with information regarding new services at the Health Unit. Thanks to all who have supported the health initiatives to the once, one and only health facility at Migyera.

As we celebrate the International Day of a Girl child, Change A Life Uganda is proud to have provided a water collection and purification system to a home of one of the sponsored girls Nabiryo Grace. Water is life and i know that the life of the family as a whole will change as a result of the provision of the system since Migyera is a water scarce area. Thanks to all who have supported our WASH Initiative not forgetting Al Gustafson and Rutgers University Globe-Med Team.
