  Surgery for 100 children on the waiting list

  Following the October 2026 walk; results not yet published

  The 2026 CoRSU Disability Walk set out to raise UGX 400 million to pay for surgery, therapy, assistive devices and follow-up for 100 children. Close to 300 children a year remain on the waiting list for lack of funding.

  • Target: UGX 400 million
  • About UGX 4 million for one child’s treatment
  • Would cut the yearly backlog by about a third

  Raising awareness of cosmetic surgery

  No date published

  Few people used the hospital’s cosmetic surgery service in 2024, largely because the public does not know it exists. CoRSU plans to raise awareness of the service. The hospital also reported that its liposuction machine needs to be replaced.
