A mosquito net for a Village Health Team Member

Mutagobwa is a 28 year old mother  of 3 children who resides in the Nawansega B Village of Uganda, a village that UVP has been working in, for the past 10 months. Mutagobwa  is a  recently elected village health team member who’s focal point and interest is hygiene and sanitation in the village of Nawansega.  Mutagobwa is a housewife and her husband is a guard.

When asked why she bought a net, she says, ” When UVP came to Nawansega, they educated us on Malaria transmission and prevention. I have bought a net because this area has very many mosquitoes and I want to keep my children from getting bit by the mosquitoes, as they cause malaria. I am grateful I can now afford the net at the price UVP is selling it. Thank you.”

Mutagobwa asked us to pass on a big thank you to you !
