Hailing the students for their generosity towards the charity outreach, Mirembe Racheal Sserwadda, the University Guild President empathised with the struggling nature of the disabled children, expressing the urgency for physical and emotional help to the children.

“As students, we feel the need to put a smile on the faces of those facing a lot of difficulties, The majority of pupils here have physical disabilities and struggle to lead normal lives. It is really emotional to realize how brave these people are; they need help”, said Sserwadda.

According to Migade Fred, the Director of Good Samaritan Inclusive School of the disabled, the school currently contains 92 physically impaired children with body disorders such as polio, hydrocephalus, cellebral pulse, polio, spinal injuries and mental illnesses.

Migade alludes the schools biggest constraint to lack of funds due to increased demands for purchase of medical items such as catheters, cone tubes and pampers for kids who cannot control their excretory organs.

“Taking care of these kids requires a lot of money, yet parents or guardians that bring them are only charged Uganda shs. 60,000, the rest of the money is lobbied by our efforts to cater for the purchase of some medical items such catheters, tubes and pampers for those children who have loose private parts and can’t control passage of urine”, said Migade.

Migade also noted that says that the school of disabilities relies on donations from well-wishers to operate and appealed to the community to support the school for a noble cause.

He further advocated against discrimination of persons living with disabilities in the job market sighting their potentials and abilities to perform.

“In the field of work, people especially bosses should not be afraid of employing disabled children especially when they get qualifications and potential to do some of these works”, said Migade.

Among other activities carried on by UCU students during the charity visit was preparation of food for the children, and co-curricular activities such as football games, dancing and riddles which stimulated joy and happiness among the vulnerable children.

Having the power to improve the lives of others is, to many people, a privilege and one that comes with its own sense of obligation
