The Integrated Child and Youth Development (ICYD) in conjunction with Infectious Disease Institute (IDI) have supplied 35 bicycles to Para- Social Workers in Kibaale district to ease their movement while executing their duties in the district.
Innocent Ayebale the Kibaale District Orphanage and Vulnerable Children Officer spearheaded the exercise of handing over the bicycles to the beneficiaries at Bwamiramira Sub County headquarter today morning.
Ayebale says the main purpose of having para- social workers in the district are to take special care to children living with HIV, sensitizing on nutrition and hygiene as well as empowering youth on economic development.
He notes that the two Non-governmental organizations are giving special care to 1788 families across the district to children affected with HIV/AIDS and that the program will last for 5 years.
Delighted beneficiaries reveal that they have been facing a problem of transport means but are optimistic that the given bicycles will help them to reach every household as far as their responsibilities are concerned.
