With support from the @DellFdn, we will grow from serving approximately 300 patients annually to more than 2,000 each year in Uganda πΊπ¬ and Tanzania πΉπΏ β an increase of nearly 600%.
This means more patients like Gloria will be able to walk, run, grow, and thrive π§‘
This Spring, we move like Gloria π full of joy, movement, and newfound confidence.
Now, she can walk, run, jump, and play soccer. And she has returned to school, no longer limited by pain or by the hurtful words of classmates who once bullied her.
