Event Description:
In preparation for World Hearing Day, I started by engaging the Jinja City Medical office through the Special Needs Education Office to share with them my intention and get permission to do WHD activities in different parts and schools within Jinja City.
I later shared /wrote to Mayor Jinja City about the same and I was given a green light to go on to help the public.
I then visited the Director of Specialized Doctors International hospital, Dr.Angela Namala to ask if her hospital would facilitate the activities of WHD in case my small grant application went through.
Lucky enough, WHO
