She is smiling. She looks healthy. But 28 year old Lion Stella Nairuba, a
young bride and mother of baby twins, is anywhere near being not fine. She has been diagnosed with a life
threatening heart condition - Atrial Septal Defect. Simply put, she has a hole in her heart. Her doctors at the Heart Institute (Mulago Referral
Hospital – Kampala ) say she urgently needs
Constructive Open Heart Surgery. Fortunately, the operation can be done in Kampala . Depending on
availability of funds, she will be operated in June or July 2012.One of her
twin girls unfortunately has a similar diagnosis.
Lion Stella was indicted in 2008, and served the Club
dutifully as Secretary in 2010-2011. The purpose of this letter is to appeal to you fellow Lions and
well-wishers in our Multiple District 411 to partner with us in raising
Sh13,925,000 (Thirteen million, nine hundred twenty five thousand shillings)
($5,570). This is the money quoted by the Heart Institute to be cost of the surgery.
I have attached a scanned copy of the Invoice from the Heart Institute
detailing a breakdown of the cost.
The following bank account is in
place for that purpose:
Bank:
Stanbic Bank
Branch:
Wandegeya Branch
Account Name:
Uganda Heart Institute
Account No:
014005985901
In case of any communication on this subject, please quote No 2005 (as
mentioned in the Invoice).
Any assistance in this matter will be greatly appreciated.
