KCHEF Combats the Ravages of HIV/AIDS in Uganda
Contact: Robert C. Baldwin, KCHEF, 321-474-2179, baldwingroup@cfl.rr.com
 
MELBOURNE, Fla., July 4, 2016 /Christian Newswire/ -- KCHEF (Kasese Community Health and Education Foundation) combats the ravages of HIV/AIDS in the Rwenzori region of Southwest Uganda.
 
Founded in 2002 and supported by Dioceses, Parishes and Individuals throughout the Episcopal Church, KCHEF has developed into a pre-eminent health and education organization in Kasese Uganda.
 
In 2015, KCHEF has accomplished the following:
 
        Served over 25,000 patients
        Delivered 345 babies
        Immunized more than 4,900 patients
        Provided HIV counseling and testing to over 2,100 patients
        Supported the education of approximately 500 students
 
While all of the early costs of developing the Medical Clinic were funded by donations, today the clinic is close to being self-sufficient through support from local companies, some private pay and assistance from the Ugandan Government.
 
Almost a generation since its founding and with the commitment of many donor organizations, KCHEF sees the difference it has made every day in the health of mothers and infants and in the number of graduates that return to Kasese to work and support the KCHEF efforts.
