In February 2025, the health clinic
HOPE Health Clinic opened in a rural region of Uganda.
Goal: Sustainable financing through moderate patient fees while ensuring access for vulnerable groups.
In Kiryandongo District, many births still take place without adequate medical care. Long distances to health facilities and a lack of infrastructure increase the risk of complications during pregnancy and childbirth.
The construction of a maternity ward is intended to significantly improve access to safe obstetric care as well as prenatal and postnatal care. The new ward will specifically complement the existing services of the health clinic and will be tailored to the needs of women and newborns.
The project is being planned in collaboration with Engineers Without Borders Switzerland to ensure a functional, sustainable construction method adapted to local conditions.
Several times a week, village residents have the opportunity to take writing and reading courses to improve their English skills.
Through practical courses such as sewing and hairdressing lessons, as well as making liquid soap and reusable sanitary pads, we enable participants to acquire income-generating skills and strengthen their economic independence.

The non-profit SIVERA association was founded in Zug in 2025 by Fiona Bienz together with committed friends. For several years, she has supported the projects of the “Light for Forgotten Children” foundation in Uganda. This close connection gave rise to the desire to sustainably strengthen neighbouring communities as well.
SIVERA is committed to access to health, education and social development in a rural region of Kiryandongo District. Together with local partners, we run an education centre and a health clinic and develop further projects based on the specific needs on the ground.
