    JA NUA RY - JUNE 2009 A T IVIT Y RE PORT : OPA : 09-01-02-01Dear Stichting Oud in Africa,Greetings from Grace and Compassion Mundika Complex.

    Indeed it isour pleasure to present to you our sixmonthly activity report with hopes thatall of you are keeping well.Since the year began up to date a lot has taken place with the aim of improving onolder persons' living standards. Although some incidents took place unexpectedly, e.g.deaths, drought, hunger and sickness,with the help and support from the Stitching Oudin Africa, we have been able to cope. and life stillgoes on.Thereport shall be tackled under the three main areas of operation in regard to thecare for elderly.

    property of their own hence, are fully dependant on Sistersof Grace andcompassion for their livelihood.Recently one of them died, her short storywill be mentioned in theobituaries.Forthe up-keep of the home the congregation relieson the support fromEngland, weil-wishersfrom around, these includes businessmen asweil assomereligious organizations. Thesesupport the home by giving some donations in formof material, mainly second hand clothes and sometimes the businesspeopleoffer food. Thisimplies that, every little gift counts and it ishelpful to those thatreceive and use it. With that in mind, we don't chose what should be donated tous;any form of donation isutilized with care.Forthe past few years the home for elderly has existed at Mundika, had notreceived much support trom the Government officials. The only NGO that tookinterest in the care for elderly as trom the year 1996isHelpage international, nowhas a branch in Kenya known as Helpage Kenya. TheSistersof G & C, (whosemain charism isto cater for the needs of elderly) have been in Kenya Busia-Mundika, since 1990.Withthe support trom the HAl/HAK,we have been able toreach few more destitute older personsand give them a better home to stayand a happy dignified death! Inother words, most of the residents at OPHaresponsored by HAl/HAK.Asfrom 2004up to date, the work for caring and supportof the elderly has also been complimented by another NGO trom theNetherlands known as 'the Stichting Oud InAtrica'. Hence, the Sistersof G & C,HAand OIA, all support each other in the care for elderly destitute.Having said that, HAKsupports many older persons in the developing countries,and as a result of the increase of older personsworldwide, there isa shortage offinance to meet all the needs for an older person.Thisyear (2009)the OPHhas been blessed to receive some support trom thegovernment via the Social Service department branch in BusiaDistrict.Hunger was declared among the national disastersby Hon. President MwaiKibaki in March 2009.Tothat connection the home received a cheque ofKSH.15,000/-and 17bags of maize to help combat hunger among the olderpeople at the OPH.With the KSH.15,000/- the mattresses + covers werepurchased for the older persons ' use at the OPH.Theseare of great helpespecially for the residents that are incontinent and bed-ridden. Forthe 17bagsof maize was a fair supply of food for our older persons at OPH. In a month, ourolder personsat OPHconsume at least 4 bags of maize grinded for both ugali(stabie food) and porridge. Although for porridge maize ismixed with millet andsoya beans before it isgrinded into flour. At present a bag of maize costs Ksh.

    3000/-, a bag of Soya beans costs Ksh.9000/- and a bag of kidney beans Ksh.6,750/-. (A bag isequivalent to 90kgs). The Sisterstogether with the residentsappreciated for the support and wrote a letter to thank the District Officer andhis team for their thoughtfulness.Some farming isalso done at OPH's grounds, of which most of it to do with cropswil! be reported on by Mr. Kennedy Langiri, since that falls under his department.Apart from thct. there are dairy animals at the OPH grounds. These produces milkenough for our older persons' consumption and the Sisters.With the help andsupport of OIA program in the Netherlands, we we re given these cows via HeiferInternational program as one way of reducing poverty among the people. Theagreement with the Heifer international is that, atter the cows have calveddown, we are expected to pass on those calves to other needy persons/ person.The first passing on of five calves trom us to other needy persons took place on29/05/2009, of which I hope Sr.Beatrice (Srin-charge of farm) has reportedabout. Besides the cows, there are also local chickens reared at the OPH forresident's consumption. Recently some of the chickens we re coughing. Whenthe Sr in-charge for elderly inquired what could be the cause, she was told byKennedy (a volunteer) that it was typhoid for birds. He advised on whatmedicine to buy, it was bought and he treated the chickens. Coughing ceasedwithin a period of 3 days post-treatment. Now the chickens are fine, two of themhave hatched with eight chicks each. We also have 2 guard dogs at OPH. Oneof the dogs has 3 puppies: they have been booked to be bought by 3 businessmen in Busia town. Now the puppies can't be released because they are still tooyoung to leave their mother. They are usually sold out after a period of 6 weeksof their birth. Both the mother and puppies are doing weil!On the other side of the coin, Grace (one of our dairy cows) isunwell for over 3weeks now. The vets have been in and out to see her and they say she issuffering from anaplaxis (disease that attack the larger joints of an animal)among the five cows that we have, Grace has been producing plenty of milkmore than the rest, now that she is unwell, it an implication that milk productionhas dropped! AII in all, we still manage and hope that she will be weil soon.On the side of the residents, since Felister died on 10thJun '2009, it was suggestedby the Sistersthat we consider taking Mariana Nekesa in place of Felister R.I.P.Therefore, with effect trom 13thJun'2009, Mariana isa resident at OPH. Below isashort story of Mariana Nekesa' 67 years old.Mariana lived alone at her house (built by the project) at Igero village, CentralBusia District. She isone of the HA beneficiaries that never had the opportunity ofenjoying family life with her husband due to lack of children. In summary,Mariana was not blessed to bear children for her husband: this resulted into her

    being chased away from her marital home by her brothers' in-Iaw af ter thedeath of her husband.In March 2008 Mariana developed 2 nasty wounds; on her leg and on top of herleft leg. The wounds became necrotic with debris around them. For the woundsto progress weil and not cause more harm/ infection to other parts of the body, itwas important that they are cleaned and dressed at least 3 times daily. SinceMariana lived approximately 10 km away from the convent, it became difficultfor Srto be visiting Mariana x3 daily with regard that she has other older personsbesides Mariana to cater for. Therefore, Srin-charge decided to bring Marianato OPH to be treated and nursed from there. The wound dressings that were sentto us by ship from Holland have really done a wonderful job on Mariana's footand the rest! Mariana has been to OPH for over a veer. the foot isprogressingweil although slowly, while the leg part has healed and left a scar.Previously Mariana received HBC support, but now she receives residents'support. She ispleased about it. now that she isunable to walk around and dothings for herself as she used/ would like to. At OPH Mariana has learnt how toweave baskets and make mats using palm leaves. Thisskillshe has been taughtby Teresa and other residents. She seems to get on weil with other residents andshe isgrateful for the care and support she receives.

    2. HOME BASEDCARE (HBC).HBC comprises of 86 older persons that are beneficiaries of the project and receivecare and support from their own home environment. For the sufficient delivery of theservices to the older persons. Sr in-charge of the elderly work hand in hand with thevolunteers and ensure that most of the needs of beneficiaries are addressed and met.HBCis the area whereby most of the financial support sent to us by the stichting oud inAfrika isfully utilized. It covers salaries for volunteers and for nurse services that assisttocare for older persons. nutritional values and healthcare for older persons andvolunteers, building/ construction (shelter provision and toilets) for older persons. Themoney sent by stichting oud in Africa isalso used to purchase bed/ beddings, clothingfor older persons and to meet many other needs for the elderly. A summary of all theseneeds will be reflected in the financial report. Besides what will be mentioned in thefinancial report, a sum of money also goes to home visits.guiding and counseling ofolder persons and offering moral and financial support when needed. For that reoson.some cash goes to vehicle maintenance, petrol and transport. OIA also supports thetraining of volunteers e.g. computer skilts . driving/ riding a rnotorcvcle. agriculturalseminars, etc.

    As said in the introduction, every volunteer is to report on her/hls department:A) DAN IE L BARASA: Report on Buildinq and Construction Department.

    Building and construction is one of the major activities undertaken by theprogramme to ensure that the elderly have a comfortabie and sensible stay.It entails building of houses and digging and building of toilets (pit latrines). AIIwill agree with me that shelter isone of the most basic needs in human life,others being food, health and clothing.In the budget of 2009 we proposed to construct 17 houses and 17 toilets, ofwhich we are through with the houses and are preparing to start working ontoilets.The following are the names of the beneficiaries that have had their housesbuilt; Arnolda Nyangweso, Angela Namukuru, Awino Owich, Charles Obara,Christine Ajwang', Clementina Nyongesa, Hellena Ochumi, Hellen AdhiamboR.I.P,Vincent Osiba, Eunice Khaseke, Federes Egesa, Kalasina Nabwire,Monica Ogono, Wilbroda Nasirumbi, Rose Arnoit. Sabina Abat and PaskaliaOkinei.I take this golden chance to thank the project sponsors and stake holders fortheir cooperation and hard work! Had it been not for the kindness andgenerosity of the stichting oud in Africa in the Netherlands for their financialsupport, we would have lost most of our older persons in an appalling state.With those few remarks, I say 'Long live Oud in Africa'!

    B) GILBERT OMOJONG: Report on Transport and Communication:Thisdepartment holds two main branches;1. Transport:

    Under transport the project owns two means, i.e. motorcycle and 7bicycles used by the 7 volunteers of the project. The motorbike is used bythe coordinator for field work purposes and for the quick transportation ofEaster and Christmas commodities to the older persons. At times themotorbike isalso used for emergencies e.g. transportation of medicationto older persons in places where the roads do not exist for piek-ups toaccess. Also this same motorbike is being used to train the volunteers. Atpresent all the volunteers have known how to ride a motorbike but theystill wait for the official testing and issuing of a license. Daniel isdue for thetest at the end of July'2009, and then the rest will follow. Srin-charge forelderly bought for volunteers thick jackets as protective clothes when oneis using a motorbike. AII volunteers are grateful for the support we receiveas being part of OIA programme.Bicycles are used by the volunteers to reach the beneficiaries, to checkon how they fairing on and to deliver monthly food and hand out to them.
