Committed to an HIV/AIDS-free life and marriage

Ngobi is 27 years old and resides in Nakamini, a village where UVP has just conducted an HIV/STI outreach. He was able to attend and get tested for HIV/AIDS after getting educated and counseled by the nurse and counselor. When asked why he wanted to get tested for HIV/AIDS, he had this to say.

“I am planning to get married in August this year and we have tested for HIV as a couple once since our relationship started. Today, I have come alone for testing because she is out of the village. I will share my results with her and have her tested again so that we are able to have an HIV/AIDS free life and marriage.”

Thank you, Kandace, for supporting Uganda Village Project and an entire village in Iganga, Uganda. Ngobi and his community can live worry free of these sometimes lethal infections and diseases. Not only are the tested community members educated and reassured, but those that tested positive receive treatment so preventable diseases like Syphilis cannot take over their lives. Thank you again, Kandace for helping so many to have healthier and happier lives.
