Community Outreach: Health Camp Serves 500 Families

In partnership with Kinyamasika Health Centre and volunteer medical professionals, St. Paul's Seminary organized a free health camp that served over 500 families from surrounding communities. The camp provided essential health services including medical consultations, immunizations, and health education.

Seminarians played a crucial role in the camp, assisting with patient registration, translation services, and organizing health education sessions. The event demonstrated the seminary's commitment to integral human development and social responsibility.

"This outreach program teaches our seminarians the importance of holistic ministry that addresses both spiritual and physical needs," explained Fr. John Bosco Kiweewa, Dean of Students.

Services provided included:

• General medical consultations
• Child immunizations
• Health education on hygiene and nutrition
• Basic dental care
• Vision screening

The health camp is part of the seminary's ongoing community engagement initiatives, which also include literacy programs and agricultural training for local farmers.
