The Reality of Kidney Disease in Uganda
Why Kidney Disease Awareness Matters
Kidney disease is a silent but rapidly growing health challenge in Uganda. Most people discover it when it is already too late, often due to limited medical access and low awareness. At Becky’s Child Foundation, we believe that prevention is the most powerful tool we have.
Our goal is to educate communities, promote healthy habits, and support families affected by kidney-related illnesses.
- cases every year 33%
- discovered too late 87%
- Limited access to dialysis and treatment 93%
