The Kellerman FoundationDiane Stanton, Executive Director is the speaker.
Scott Kellermann, a family physician, and his wife, Carol, an educator, arrived in Uganda in 2000 as medical missionaries to survey the Batwa’s health. The couple was so inspired to help the Batwa that they moved to Uganda in 2001. Dr. Kellermann began treating hundreds of people who lined up each day for his open-air clinic under a ficus tree. Over the next eight years, they bought land, built homes, started schools and mobile clinics, initiated clean water and sanitation projects, and showed the pygmies how to grow healthy food. They also founded a hospital that has extended health services not only to the Batwa, but also all other residents of the region, a population of over 120,000. |
