How to donate...

A little money can go a long way in Uganda. The smallest donation toward the running of the Medical Centre will go a long way in saving the lives of these children. You can donate as much or a little as you wish.

Make it worth more

If you are a UK tax payer, we can reclaim the tax you have already paid on your donation. A £10 gift from you will be worth £12 to Medcare. This is an easy way to ensure your contribution has maximum effect where it matters; on the children of Uganda.
