Once there, the Youth at Work Initiative Uganda paired them with medical and nursing students from Makerere University in Kampala to deliver the public health program. Learn more!

Unintended benefits...
RUFC camp participant, Soul, came to me on the first day in tears telling me his tooth had been hurting for 3 months. I asked him to open his swollen jaw, revealing a rotten and infected back molar. I immediately went with him to a nearby clinic. 20 minutes and $4 later the tooth was extracted and Soul was given antibiotics. On Friday Soul was back at camp with a brilliant smile!
