Thank you CEHURD and all partners and friends of UWOCASO. You made our annual signature event very colorful. We look forward to a very fruitful partnership where we can work together to make cancer care better for all Ugandans.
❝The high cost of cancer care remains a major burden for patients and their families. Through your support, @UWOCASOfficial provides free counselling, patient navigation and, where resources allow, food and transport assistance to patients in need.
As we remember those we have lost, stand with those still fighting and celebrate survivors, we must recognise that survivorship also comes with challenges. Many continue to live with treatment side effects, recurrence or metastatic cancer, while caregivers carry significant emotional and financial burdens.
We call on @GovUganda to invest in affordable cancer care, diagnostic services and essential medicines. We also urge employers and communities to treat people living with cancer with dignity and reject the stigma and discrimination they face.
A cancer diagnosis is burdensome enough. Our first response should be simple: How do we help this person fight?
Nobody should face cancer alone. Let us use our voices, positions and resources to support those affected and make screening, treatment and compassionate care accessible to all.”

In 2001 I gave a young Swiss friend that green kitenge which she has kept for 25 years now. 2 weeks ago, we reconnected after about 12 years of no contact. Now her Swiss husband understands why it's her special ocassions table cloth and why she plays Maddox Sematimba's music!
Big win for cancer patients!
Since 2022, UWOCASO with support from AFRON has advocated for specialized home care at @UgandaCancerIns .
Today, UCI Home Care now has a palliative care specialist & oncology nurse available daily.
Care closer to home.

With our partners @lacor_hospital , we counseled her to restore her hope, but it can't pay school fees or put food on the table.
As we celebrate #UWOCASOat20 with DANCE WORKOUT FUNDRAISER, please stand with this mother in Gulu, as you book for your dancing kit.
Restore hope,
@GNakigudde will join @MedsPatentPool#WCC2026 to tackle truths: Cancer medicines exist,but not for everyone.
From a survivor to a global advocate,she carries the voice of Ugandan women 4 whom patents & price remain barriers to survival.
Innovation without access is injustice.
UWOCASO@20 will be a celebration of lives touched, honoring the selfless nurses, social workers and doctors plus resilient families during the cancer storm. Please support UWOCASO to change the face of cancer @CbPromise@jrgralow@uicc@UCCF_Official
