Attacks in Kampala, Uganda During World Cup

4/16/2012

0 Comments

 
GECC, Emergency Care, Global
The Board of GECC is saddened by the recent attacks in Kampala Uganda during Sunday’s World Cup game. We do want to reassure our volunteers and donors that our ENP colleagues and other friends at Nyakibale Hospital were not personally affected by this tragedy. Kampala remains calm at this time while authorities are investigating the attacks. Nyakibale is 240 miles and an 8 hour bus ride from Kampala, and we don’t expect to have any security issues arise from this incident. We will of course continue to monitor the situation carefully and update anyone if requested.  Email contact@globalemergencycare.org with specific concerns or questions. Thanks for all of your thoughts, emails, and support!
