Program 5 - Stationary and Mobile Health Clinics.
Uganda is one of the few African countries where rate of HIV infection have declined, and it is regarded as a rare example of success in Africa facing a severe AIDS crisis. Although HIV prevalence in Uganda is much lower than it once was, it still remains very high, and AIDS is still claiming tens of thousands of lives every year. Such a severe epidemic has a considerable social and economic impact. As AIDS usually destroys young adults, it depletes Uganda’s labor force, and weakens educational and health services. Death among young adults also leave behind thousands orphaned children and this contributes to poverty in communities, since the burden of caring for the vast majority of orphans falls on already overstretched extended families; women or grand parents with the meager resources.

Center for Orphans Welfare (COW) is designed to build both Stationary and Mobile HIV/AIDS clinics which will provide contact by outreach workers to orphaned children, men, and women in Moyo and Adjumani districts who have limited access to lifesaving drugs, testing facilities, and basic health care.

1. To provide basic health care as well as HIV/AIDS testing, prevention, treatment, and education to underserved populations of Adjumani and Moyo districts.
2. To reach out to patients in villages who lack transportation to come to the stationary clinics.
Strategy:
1. To educate the people in communities how to prevent the spread of HIV/AIDS.
2. To educate the people how to care for those individuals in communities who are infected with HIV/AIDS.
3. To educate people in communities to go out and teach others about HIV/AIDS.

1. To fully equip the van with medical equipment and staffed by a physician and nurses.
2. To transport much needed testing materials and medicine to people in villages who are unable to go to a medical doctor.
