Dear Gerrard & Minna, 

Greetings from the  SF Bay Area, and I hope this email finds you well. How are you? Thanks for your email regarding your Savanda.org hospital project in Uganda. I'll put a check in the mail to you at your  ...  address on my walk up to the Unitarian Universalist Church of Kensington - Berkeley (having noticed that the Quaker American Friends' Service Committee doesn't seem to work in Uganda, Africa, presently due to some laws there, and possibly for other reasons too). Thanks for this opportunity to donate to this charity.

And greetings from 501 (c) 3 tax exempt public charity CC-4 licensed OCW.MIT.EDU -centric World University and School as well (and from the WUaS Press / Corp as well).

As you may know, I'm glad to report that Mwende 'VOLCANO' Evande, in Bafoussam, Cameroon, Africa, completed the free-to-students' term-long CC-4 licensed Computer Science "CS First with Google at World Univ & Sch" course learning the Scratch programming language here -  https://csfirst.withgoogle.com/s/en/home - in April. He plans to matriculate for a 4 year free-to-student's WUaS Bachelor's degree this September 1st studying further CS First with Google at WUaS courses with CC-4 ocw.mit.edu -centric courses potentially in a new WUaS App for WUaS courses-for-credit too. (Although Cameroon, like Uganda, is a poor country, and see their GDPs' here  - Cameroon: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cameroon - Uganda: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uganda  - USA: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States -  Mwende has both a personal computer and a smartphone it would seem).
  
As you may know too, this is the beginning of Uganda World University and School 
https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Uganda (planned in English, Swahili, and in other Ugandan languages) - and for free-to-students' online from home Bachelor, PhD, Law, MD and IB degrees - and accessible from here - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Nation_States

As you may now too WUaS seeks to create online Medical Schools and online teaching, and research, hospitals in all ~200 countries (per the Olympics) and in their main languages, and develop clinical trials for speakers of all 7151 known living languages (and potentially in collaboration with Stanford Medicine, and see this recent Stanford Drug Discovery Symposium in these regards: https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2022/04/clarkia-pulchella.html & https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2022/04/clarkia-amoena.html ) -  


Clinical_Trials_at_WUaS_(for_all_languages)
World Univ Medical School - 

- planned also in a #Realistic Virtual Earth For Surgery even (and think Google Street View with time slider, Maps, Earth, TensorFlowAI, Translate - and with avatar bot electronic medical records for all 7.9 billion people on the planet, each a Wikidata Pin #, brainstorming-wise)


Further, in looking for Uganda medical research, I found, for example, 'Sample records for research centre uganda" - https://www.science.gov/topicpages/r/research+centre+uganda 


And in searching the impressive ClinicalTrials.gov web site 
https://clinicaltrials.gov 

- on - 
https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/results?cond=&term=hospital&cntry=UG&state=&city=&dist=

'Other terms' -
hospital

'Country' -
Uganda

I found a lot of completed clinical trials' studies. Great precedent, and back decades it appears. 

 
Is this the 
Uganda Martyr's Hospital Ibanda -
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uganda_Martyrs%27_Hospital_Ibanda -
 in Uganda you're involved with?

And do you know how closely it might be affiliated with
Uganda Martyr's Hospital Lubaga
https://lubagahospital.org -
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lubaga_Hospital -
through the various  Roman Catholic Archdioceses of (Uganda) Mbarara?

Could these hospitals as a consortium help with the Uganda Martyr's Hospital Ibanda website? Could WUaS's plans to create online Teaching hospitals in Uganda help too (some time in the future)? 


Also, and as you may have been reading in World Univ & Sch's Monthly Business Meeting Minutes,  - 
WUaS is seeking too to make available WUaS Home Robotics' tracks - in WUaS Engineering and related majors - for free-to-students' online Bachelor and PhD degrees, since Lego Robotics works with the Scratch programming languages - and the WUaS Educational Services' store ... http://worlduniversityandschool.org/AcademicPress.html ... is an authorized reseller of 3 Lego Robotics' kits (currently in the USA only). And WUaS will seek reimbursement from countries' departments of Education for the WUaS free to students' degrees (due to the Creative Commons 4 licensing of OCW.MIT.EDU and nealy the CC-4 CS First with Google at WUaS courses), per student per year, prorated re GDP to what it costs even to attend MIT or Stanford eventually - and also will seek with developing countries for departments of Education to cover the costs of WUaS Lego Robotics' kits to matriculating students ... While in the richer countries, WUAS is seeking for students and their families themselves to pay for the Lego Robotics' kits from the WUaS Educational Services' stores.

Gerrard and Minna, how best might we communicate further about all of this, and particularly in WUaS seeking to develop online teaching hospitals in Uganda? 

Thank you!

With very best wishes, and abolition-ally,
your cousin, 
Scott

Gerrard and Minna,
