UGANDA
Dr Spira was the tribal physician for the Abayudaya tribe and helped set up their health care. He helped design a health center in the town of Mbale, Uganda, and then helped supervise the operational system for providing health care to local Ugandans.
The Health Center serves multiple tribes, in an area where Christians, Muslims and Jews live together in peace. 80,000 people inhabit the town of Mbale with 800,000 living in the district.
The health center was financed and constructed using donations from private individuals, not JHI.
