R-Evolution for the Children and Vulnerable with its team of young Ugandan women and men visited the Muslim Children Orphanage Home in Nansana (Kampala, Uganda). From years this orphanage is lovingly caring for abandoned children, promoting their reunification with their parents and their families, and in the meantime providing for their growth, education and instruction.
The “Soap bubbles against Coronavirus” initiative was once again warmly welcomed, thus giving the opportunity to share with children how to wash their hands in a practical and effective way, in order to reduce the spread of the many infectious diseases preventable with proper hygiene, including, but not limited to, the coronavirus.
In fact, an estimated 1.8 million children under the age of 5 die each year from diarrheal diseases and pneumonia, the two leading killers of young children worldwide. Washing hands with soap can protect about 1 in 3 children who get diarrhea and nearly 1 in 5 children with respiratory infections such as pneumonia.
The team has distributed everything you need to wash and sanitize your hands properly, including what may seem the most obvious but often the least available http://bit.ly/2Xe2wGR.
The R-Evolution for the Children and Vulnerable team of young Ugandan women and men has reached the New Midland Islamic Orphanage Home, in Kawempe-Luweero (Kampala, Uganda). Since 2001 this orphanage is also a school, which goes from kindergarten to primary, founded with the aim of helping orphans with education.
The “Soap bubbles against Coronavirus” initiative was warmly welcomed in this orphanage, thus giving the opportunity to share with children how to wash their hands in a practical and effective way, in order to reduce the spread of the many infectious diseases preventable with proper hygiene, including, but not limited to, the coronavirus.

With its team of young Ugandan women and men, R-Evolution for the Children and Vulnerable visited the Sanyu Babies’ Home orphanage in Kampala (Uganda), from over 90 years lovingly caring for babies and children, reintegrating them into the community, reuniting them with their families, or adopting them (www.sanyubabies.com).

Preparations are underway to start the “Soap bubbles against coronavirus” initiative also in Uganda.
The wonderful team of Ugandan youths from R-Evolution for the Children and Vulnerable will visit the orphanages to give both explanations and also everything needed to wash hands properly, including what may seem the most obvious but is often the least available. (facilities for pedal hand washing, liquid soap and disinfectant), in order to prevent the spread of infectious diseases such as covid-19 among the staff and children housed in these facilities.
All the materials and training to properly wash hands that we have provided to orphanages in Sierra Leone as part of the “Soap Bubbles Against Coronavirus” initiative continue to be crucial in the prevention of diseases such as coronavirus. We therefore very much welcome the similar initiative just undertaken by the WHO.
The WHO Office in Sierra Leone, in fact, supports state institutions in the fight against COVID-19 with the donation of hand washing, soap and face masks to the relevant Sierra Leonean Ministry
#SoapBubblesAgainstCoronavirus
The fostering of hand washing included in the “Soap bubbles against coronavirus” initiative will be among the topics of a WHO webinar today.
Heineken Africa Foundation will also launch an initiative similar to “Soap bubbles against the coronavirus”, with a national campaign in Sierra Leone aimed at promoting hand washing against the spread of Covid-19.
The “Soap bubbles against coronavirus” initiative is sparking interest in other African nations as well. Indeed a group of young Ugandan decided to come together and create a group of volunteers to be able to bring their help to orphanages, to children and to anyone who is vulnerable in Uganda. These young Ugandans have thus begun to organize themselves and exchange information and experiences with the team in Sierra Leone. Thanks to this commitment, they managed to register their association “R-Evolution for the Children and Vulnerable” with the Ugandan authorities, and will soon be able to bring their help to those most in need. The willingness to commit for their people, their organizational capacities, their ownership of the initiative is really exciting.
