DAESLU Foundation Limited
Background
DAESLU Foundtion Limited is a non-governmental, non-political and non- profit organization established in the year 2022 with the aim of supporting public health concerns in Uganda. Due to the increasing public health concerns in the remotest parts of the country, DAESLU found it fit to involve itself in changing the status quo, offering hope and life to the millions of Ugandans in those localities.
The foundation will involve itself in promoting healthy life styles, researching disease and injury prevention, and detecting, preventing and responding to infectious diseases. This will be done with the help of local leadership teams, community members, village health teams and already established government and private health sectors
