Public Health Awareness in Mangateen and Rubkona!
Most illness in these communities can be prevented. We bring practical health knowledge to families in Mangateen, Juba and Rubkona, Unity State, so they can protect themselves and their children before sickness starts.
Knowledge that keeps families well.
Our team and trained community volunteers bring health sessions to where families live, in two communities.
Mangateen
A community in Juba, close to our registered office, where we are starting regular health awareness sessions with families.
Rubkona
A community where health services are hard to reach, so knowing how to prevent illness matters even more.

Protection and peaceful co-existence
For too many families, care is far away.
Many families in South Sudan are working hard just to make ends meet. When a child falls ill, the nearest clinic can be far away and the cost too high.
The best care is the illness that never happens.
Knowing how to prevent illness protects the people most at risk:
- Children
- The elderly
- People with disabilities
- Mothers and newborns
