Miriam Medical Centre, coordinates with rural communities to ensure that life is improved. Miriam Medical Center is currently coordinating with an phanage Nursery school. The Nursery School is the only one in the area; currently with a population of 80 pupils, 49 Females and 31 Males . The orphanage is in a very poor state.

There is a greater need of improving on general structures. we ask all development workers, and supporters to view all pictures here and support this community project in any possible way

( view the picture below) still the new classroom block is not to the health standards; there is greater need to support the project. All the current developments at the orphanage school are done using local finance resources. Looking at the poor structures at the orphanage centre, Miriam Medical Centre is in a total fix; ( Needs to support but do not have the capacity.) This is why we tell development partners globally to extend a helping hand particularly targeting to helping this school, in this corner of Kasese- District, Uganda, East Africa.

MMC Community project No 2: 
 Water and Sanitation ( Construction of a community  rural water spring )
From the continued  out reach services of Miriam Medical Centre Health Workers, it was noted that lack of clean water has remained the major cause of Common Diseases. Due to this specific problem; MMC  Commits her self to develop a project proposal for constructing a community water spring,  building a big reservoir water tank and piping into the tank respectively.  The water tank to serve 100  families of about 6-7 people; is expected to cost  approximately  UGX 35 million. we call upon willing friends to extend a helping hand. email to learn more: mmcentre50@gmail.com
Most children/community members,collect water from this point. we would like to access resources in order to protect the source. The source you see does not dry up even during dry seasons. It is our plan that when we finally find resources to protect this water spring, we shall first build the source, and pipe the water 50 meters away from the source to reach the top of this hill you see. Remember; the source is about the hill; this will be easy for the water to reach the proposed big tank and flowing  all over the targeted beneficiaries and beyond. Visit us or email us to learn more. Tell a friend about this project.






Most Children/Community Members, walk long hours across the hill you see above, in search for water. With your help, we an protect the spring, construct big water tank,  and finally reduce the distance that most people walk. " They go through a narrow road across the bush".










The picture below; shows you house holds that will be served by the spring, when it is finally protected.  Houses are scattered across the hills and below the valleys. Most likely one walks for about  1 -2 hours to reach the water source, at the source, he/she enters a parade of other people waiting ; this also takes about one hour.  There is need to increase the volume of water in this village by constructing  a water reservoir tank.
