My Story
Hi Everyone, Thanks very much for taking the time to visit my fundraising page.This summer I will spend a month in Kisiizi Hospital, Uganda, developing nutrition and dietetics in the hospital and in the region. I will be travelling with UCD Volunteers Overseas with other Medical, Physiotherapy and Nursing students. Kisiizi Hospital located in the rural Rukungiri district of South Western Uganda, has benefitted from international aid since its founding in 1958. UCD Volunteers Overseas have worked with staff of the hospital since 2010 to develop and improve services for patients.Kisiizi Hospital currently has no dietitian. In collaboration with the doctors, nurses and patients of Kisiizi Hospital I will be working to improve the current services for Childhood Malnutrition, Diabetes Education and Maternal and Child Nutrition. To facilitate this project, each volunteer has a fundraising goal of €2,600. I sincerely appreciate any donations you may be able to provide. If you have any questions about the project please don't hesitate to ask!To find out more about UCD Volunteers Overseas please visit http://www.ucdvo.org/ Thanks a miillion, Gemma
