Who We Are

A Ugandan NGO built on two decades of trusted health work.


HealthRight Foundation Uganda is a Ugandan non-governmental organization, founded in 2026 to address persistent health and wellbeing gaps among post-conflict, refugee-hosting, and other vulnerable communities across Uganda.

The Foundation builds on the extensive experience and program legacy of HealthRight International and the Peter C. Alderman Foundation, combining local legal registration and Ugandan governance with proven technical expertise and partnerships.
