On Friday May 18, 2012, AAR Uganda launched into the Beckmann Trust at Ntinda Primary School. The event saw children involvement in the planting of trees  guided by officials from AAR Uganda and Ntinda Primary school.AAR Uganda will now be involved in more environmentally viable community activities with the aim of improving living conditions of communities  and  initiatives that foster a healthy environment.The Trees for Health programme combines health of environment with children's health. One of the ways the Trees for Health programme is achieved is by directly involving schools, communities, teachers and children, in the tree planting process right from  hole preparation to  care and management of the tree, hence an environmental conscious generation.

On  28 April  2012,AAR Uganda partnered with the Kiwatule Rotary Club in conjunction  with  Centenary Bank, Uganda cares-SAIL program, Wakiso  District health  department  and the local community  to organize a medical Outreach in Matugga. Over 168 people from all walks of life   turned up for this exercise. All services   during this outreach were free of charge.

We were   humbled  by  one  elderly   lady   in her 80’s  who  confessed   walking  5 miles  to the venue to  get free medical  services . All people who were diagnosed and given prescriptions got drugs straight away for free. Drugs were provided by the rotary club of Kiwatule. Our AAR Acacia health centre team spear headed the entire exercise.  Some people who were too old to line up to see a doctor had to be worked on in the ambulance. The outreach was organized by the Rotary club of Kiwatule and AAR was among the partners chosen to take part. Matugga is a rural area which is a 45 minutes drive from Kampala business district.
