About Us

Mission Mannya is a not-for-profit entity established in 2023 by a group of Australian doctors passionate about tackling health inequity. Mission Mannya’s primary goal is to provide support, supplies and funding for medical outreach programs targeting isolated communities in rural Uganda

Our programs are designed and coordinated by local Ugandan healthcare leaders, in particular the management of St Bernard’s Mannya Health Centre under the stewardship of the health centre clinician in charge, Vincent Kyeswa. This ensures that the final product is tailored to the needs of local communities. 

In pursuit of our goals, Mission Mannya operates ‘Mass Outreach’ camps in communities that require additional access to medical care. Australian doctors and medical students participate in the program on a volunteer basis and raise funds through Australian donors and community engagement.

“We aim to give an opportunity to the vulnerable individuals in rural Rakai, Lwengo & Masaka districts by providing access to quality general medical assessment, treatment for common ailments and surgical conditions at least once every year.”

— Vincent Kyeswa, Ugandan Leader
