We are so proud to introduce our first partner - Northern Uganda Medical Mission (NUMEM), an organization founded by 6 Ugandan clinical officers in Pader, a town in northern Uganda.
Northern Uganda Medical Mission Health Centre (NUMEM)
Asteroidea met with this extraordinarily gifted and motivated team in July 2015 to observe their clinic operations, to discuss the specific barriers their communities face from accessing quality health care, and to collaborate with them on determining the resources necessary for overcoming them. Asteroidea also collaborated with NUMEM to help form the organization's strategic plan, an important roadmap that will guide them towards their vision for development and expansion of healthcare services to the people of Northern Uganda. To contact NUMEM, go to their website at www.numem.org.
“...NUMEM is a part of me. I can’t leave it and I am here to do everything possible - to watch and see it grow...I can see the future days when it will be better and I want to be there when it does.”
