 The month of November was an exciting one for the Engeye Scholars Program. We were thrilled to welcome Engeye Health Clinic Co-founder and Manager, Mr. John Kalule, for a two week visit to New York. John’s schedule was packed with meetings, lectures, events and presentations. This visit allowed John and Engeye to strengthen existing collaborations with current partners such as Union College and Albany Medical College, while developing new relationships with several additional organizations. John was also welcomed as the guest speaker at the 18th Annual Alice E. Fruehan Lecture at Albany Medical College where he and a physician panel spoke about “Sustaining Global Healthcare Through Community Collaborations: Experiences at Engeye Health Clinic, Uganda.” His two week visit ended with a Craft Fair in support of the Scholars educational programs and a cocktail party fundraiser where current donors had the opportunity to personally meet John, ask questions, and learn more about the program. It was a very successful two weeks and we are excited to begin work on many of the ideas developed during his visit.
