Uganda has a population of approximately 41 million of which 5% are elderly above 55years and most of them live in rural areas where they are often neglected or abandoned with little care or no access to medical services.With health centers being  far  the elderly being weak , the lack of transportation and often access to basic needs  there is need for help and that is where we come in. Please join us by supporting our efforts to make a measurable difference in the lives of others.
