KAMPALA, Uganda– More than 300 residents of Nabbingo Catholic Parish received free medical care during a one-day health camp organized by the Trinity College Nabbingo Old Girls Association (TRICONA).
The initiative, part of the build-up to the upcoming Trinity College Nabbingo Day, aimed to give back to the community of over 32,000 people that helped shape the lives of many alumni.
Held at the Nabbingo Catholic Parish Health Centre III, the camp offered a range of services including eye care with free glasses, dental services—mainly tooth extractions for children and the elderly—blood donation, TB and HIV testing, hypertension screening, and women’s health services, among others.
TRICONA President Marie Solome Nassiwa Lubowa emphasized that the event was driven by the desire to serve the very community that nurtured them. “We brought together a team of dedicated medical professionals, many of whom are old girls of the college, to offer these services as a way of giving back,” she said.
The medical team comprised professionals from Joint Clinical Research Centre (JCRC) Entebbe, Nakasero Blood Bank, Kampala Institute of Science and Technology (KIST) Kyengera, St. Joseph’s Hospital Wakiso, the Catholic Archdiocese of Kampala, Alisa Dental Services, and the Rotary and Rotaract Clubs of Nabbingo.
Nassiwa also expressed appreciation to the Archdiocese of Kampala for its support towards TRICONA’s proposed Shs14 billion Trinity Junior School project. The school aims to provide a strong foundation for young girls and ensure a smooth transition into the college, reinforcing the institution’s values of discipline and faith.
She applauded the community’s turnout at the medical camp and called on all stakeholders to continue supporting the junior school project to help secure a better future for the girl child.
Trinity College headmistress Immaculate Lwanga Nassozi announced that the Archbishop of Kampala, Most Rev. Paul Ssemogerere, will be the chief celebrant at the upcoming Trinity College Day, which marks 83 years of the school’s existence
