Other areas to be screen are blood diagnostic test for malaria, prostate specific antigen, Hepatitis B and C as well as dental optical consultation, HIV and AIDS Counselling Testing. It is unfortunate that some people do not take care of their health issues seriously, even when they noticed conditions that needed urgent medical care.<\/li>
    • A hand-washing exercise to emphasize the importance of hand washing in our daily lives. Activities: Children will be taught basic hygienic practices and encourage to wash their hands with soap and clean water before eating. E.g a demonstration of hand washing to give children the idea of how to wash their hands thoroughly.<\/li>
    • Heart to Heart interaction between our counselors and the youth of the communities on issues relating to their sexuality.<\/li>
    • Health Education and Promotion: changing the focus from cure to prevention. Any of the list below and monetary funding you can bring to donate to outreach will be great.<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
