ONEDAY HEALTH US

OneDay Health has a simple, but powerful mission: to bring high-quality healthcare to all Ugandans, no matter where they live.

Last year, YOU helped us build health clinics that are already saving lives. Now, we need to provide equipment for our nurses to save even more. And, each donation up to $6,000 USD will be matched dollar-for-dollar by the Sumar-Lakhani Foundation!

Our exciting new Soroti hub is ahead of schedule with our wonderful manager Elec Alfred launching 2 new OneDay health centers in September and October! These health centers in Omasia and Aripei have started strongly, with over 700 patients in the first 2 months. We look forward to launching two more before the end of the year in the remote villages of Agule and Amugei and hope to launch 8 or 9 health centers in the region by mid-2023.

The Soroti hub encompasses 3 language groups and 6 Ugandan districts, with nurses required to be trilingual in some sites (2 local languages plus English). The region has unique challenges, with densely populated communities surrounded by isolated swamps, which often get cut off from main roads after heavy rains.

A one-time donation for medical equipment goes a long way. For US donors this donation is fully tax-deductible:

All Medications needed for launch - $500

Solar Unit - $200

Medication cupboard - $100

Blood pressure machine - $50

Thank you!

Did you know that OneDay Health treats and saves lives — for as little as $1.50 per patient?

We're OneDay Health — a nonprofit with the dream that, one day, every rural Ugandan will access quality healthcare. We launch health centers in the most remote areas of the world and have treated over 150,000 patients!

It's simple: provide malaria treatments, treat pregnant mothers and kids, and ensure that everyone, everywhere has access to basic primary healthcare. Help us extend this basic human right to more people in need:

Our goal is to open a new hub in Kumi, a healthcare black hole. OneDay Health services are desperately needed and these families have no other option for healthcare in the Kumi region.

Help us to save lives today — and open a health clinic that will last generations.

Problem

 

5 million Ugandans live in remote rural communities where healthcare is inaccessible as the nearest health facility center is more than 5 km from their home. They live in healthcare black holes – areas far from healthcare facilities, with poor road networks and limited transport options. When people get sick in these black holes, they have no good option and are forced to either incur a crippling travel expense to distant health facilities, visit a drug shop with poorly trained staff and inadequate medical supplies, or wait at home and hope the condition doesn’t become deadly.

 

Solution

 

OneDay Health provides high-quality nurse-led, comprehensive, sustainable primary health care at the cost of only $1.50 for each patient treated. We have launched our first 22 OneDay Health Centers with our standard 3 step process. In just one day, we open a one nurse Health Canter in a small rented building, which can become locally financially sustainable within 12 months and provide a long term, permanent solution that meets the primary healthcare needs of between 3000 and 10,000 people. Please help us fundraise $2,800 to open and equip a new OneDay Health Center in LuKai (a remote village near Gulu, Uganda) and save lives!
