The ambulance that services the Kristina Health Centre and wider Otuke District needs urgent repair. 

The Ambulance acts as our connection between the remote communities and the emergency services provided in Lira town – a 78km journey in a car. Without this lifesaving ambulance, the trip could take hours and puts lives at risk.  It is currently broken down and unable to transport patients.

We are asking if you are able, to please make a contribution toward the repair of the ambulance so we can get it back on the road saving lives. Donate below or click the link to go to the full campaign page.

Who we are

Love Mercy began in 2010 in Sydney, Australia after Eloise Wellings, Australian Olympian, met Ugandan Olympian and former child soldier, Julius Achon. She promised to fulfill his dream of restoring hope to his village in Northern Uganda after decades of civil war. Love Mercy sees a future where Northern Uganda is transformed through simple solutions to poverty. Our two main projects, Cents for Seeds and the Kristina Health Centre, increase access to education, health care, and income generation and are funded entirely by generous donations from the public. We need your help.

Cents for Seeds
Cents for Seeds is a micro-loan project running in northern Uganda. Uganda is home to some of the most fertile land in the world, however, in the years following the war, the people did not have anything to farm with. Beginning in 2011 with just 100 women, Cents for Seeds will reach 13,800 in 2018. Our mission is to provide loans to 20,000 women by the year 2020.

"I donate to Love Mercy, primarily through their Cents for Seeds program, because I know that almost the entire $ donated goes directly to helping those in need. It is also so tangible- $30 buys 30kg of seed. I have also seen first-hand where the money goes and the impact it has in changing the lives of those in Northern Uganda." Gerard Timbs, Lawyer
