Report on Tubele Balamu Health Camp

Date: 11 March 2025

Location: Singo County Stadium (Day 1)

The Tubele Balamu Health Camp, organized in partnership with the Kabaka Foundation at Singo County Stadium, proved to be a significant milestone in our ongoing efforts to provide vital health services to the community.

Overview

The health camp was designed to offer comprehensive liver disease screening, with a particular emphasis on Hepatitis B. The Liver Health Foundation\'s laboratory team was on-site to conduct a series of tests aimed at early detection and intervention for liver-related conditions.

Screening Highlights

✅ A total of 43 Hepatitis B tests were performed.

✅ Out of these, 3 cases tested positive for Hepatitis B while 40 cases were non-reactive.

✅ In addition to Hepatitis B, tests for other liver-related diseases were conducted, further reinforcing the event\'s role in early disease detection and awareness.

Overcoming Challenges

While the event encountered some logistical hurdles—specifically, difficulties in directing participants to the respective healthcare tents—the overall impact was overwhelmingly positive. The detection of positive cases highlights the critical importance of such community-based health camps in combating liver diseases through early screening and education.

Looking Ahead

The Kabaka Foundation and Liver Health Foundation are deeply committed to continuing this work. By organizing similar events in the future, we aim to extend our outreach further into underserved communities, ensuring that everyone has access to essential liver health services and the necessary information to protect their well-being.

We extend our sincere gratitude to the volunteers, participants, and all supporters who contributed to the success of the Tubele Balamu Health Camp. Your dedication and collaboration are instrumental in our mission to enhance liver health across Uganda.
