This Is YOUR Impact

My dearest friends and family, my heart pours out to you

Your donations helped change a community. Your support helped change my life. After four months in Uganda working on the Suubi Health Center, I have finally returned to California. Budondo has taught me so much about love and dreams and perseverance, about patience and respect and laughter. Suubi filled me with a purpose and meaning that I had never felt before. Leaving was impossible and my heart continues to ache. The only solace I find in saying goodbye is the certainty of saying hello again--the promise of the future.

Take a look at what we have accomplished together. I am so proud of our efforts and I am so excited for the work to come. We will never stop pursuing our dream (yes, it is our dream now) or joining hands with the people who make all this possible. To continue your relationship with the Suubi Health Center, visit our donation page: www.stayclassy.org/suubicenter. I have pledged to raise an additional $5,000 because of how deeply I have fallen in love with Suubi's vision. I couldn't have done it without you. Thank you.

This is your impact:

The Suubi Health Center's complete transformation: 

​

Passion fruits, hardwood trees and green peppers are planted and growing strong as part of our sustainability initiative

​

Suubi's water supply system will be collecting and filtering rain water this season

​

We have broken ground for the first ever Theater Hall. This community center will provide a platform for health workers' conferences, women's empowerment forums, public health seminars while generating sustainable income for Suubi

​

The Suubi Women have been fitted for uniforms and are ready to assist our health professionals in the clinic and out in the village

We welcomed the newest advocate, Latifah Kiribedda, to Budondo. I am so happy to pass the torch on to such a brilliant young women, the first Ugandan Global Ad​vocate, who has vast experience in public health. She will help Suubi surpass all expectations. So proud of you!

​​But most importantly, you believed in the dream of thousands of people. You invested in their future and you changed their lives forever

​

This is patient work and the Suubi Health Center's license is still being processed. Keep checking in for the center's long awaited grand opening announcement coming soon! I will also continue to share stories, pictures insights and impact from the past four months of my life in Uganda plus Latifah's upcoming progress.

​As always, we are endlessly grateful. Tweyanziza ino.

Love and thanks from Helen Seely and the Suubi​ Community
