Supporting the people, equipment and facilities that make quality healthcare possible.
For more than a decade, Maranatha Health has been providing essential healthcare services to communities in western Uganda. As demand for services grows, so too does the need for the facilities, equipment and skilled people that make quality care possible.
In 2025, we celebrated ten years of delivering healthcare from our current site in Fort Portal. While this has been an important milestone, ageing infrastructure and limited space are increasingly restricting what we can do and how we can grow.
We're now looking towards the next chapter. Plans are underway for the first stage of a new health facility on land purchased in 2018, creating the foundations for expanded clinical services and a more sustainable future for healthcare delivery.
But building better healthcare isn't just about buildings. It's also about having the right equipment and skilled professionals to provide timely, accurate diagnoses and safe, effective treatment.
This Christmas, we're raising funds for four important investments in our clinical services:
$2,500 – Laboratory microscopes
Reliable microscopes are essential for identifying disease-causing organisms, examining blood cells and guiding clinical decisions. Our existing equipment is ageing, with one microscope that has been in service since 2012 now beyond repair. New microscopes will strengthen our laboratory capacity and improve diagnostic services.
$800 – Drug infusion pump
An infusion pump enables healthcare professionals to administer medication and intravenous fluids at precisely controlled rates. This is particularly important for critically ill patients, newborns and young babies who require carefully monitored medication. This equipment will improve medication accuracy, support nursing staff and enhance patient safety.
$10,000 – A full-time qualified sonographer
Ultrasound is an important diagnostic tool, particularly in maternal and reproductive health, abdominal investigations and the monitoring of medical conditions. Funding a dedicated sonographer will help reduce delays, avoid costly referrals to distant facilities and enable our clinical team to make more timely and informed decisions about patient care.
Every contribution will help strengthen the healthcare services available to the communities we serve, through better diagnostic equipment, specialist expertise and the facilities needed to support future growth.
This Christmas, help us build better healthcare together.
Your generosity will help equip our team, improve patient care and create a stronger foundation for the future of Maranatha Health.
