VLM donors have been very generously sponsoring the college fees of a medical student in Masanga for the past three years. This will benefit both the individual, Romara, and his family through the provision of a sustainable livelihood and will positively impact the whole community by the better health care they will receive from this additional role within the hospital. After graduating next summer Romara is going to volunteer at the health centre in Masanga run by the Daughters of Charity. He says, “I want to offer my service to those vulnerable as I was”. This truly encapsulates the Vincentian spirit and ethos.
