"Embracing Boldness: The Power of Starting Now"
I was working with an Executive Coaching Client today, and it had me reflecting on how sometimes we just have to start NOW, even if it isn't perfect!

As someone who thrives on organization and planning, I find joy in having everything in its place, setting decade-long goals, and immersing myself in detailed preparations. It brings me a sense of readiness for all aspects of my life.

Yet, I've come to understand that sometimes, my penchant for 'over-planning' isn’t about being prepared. It's more about delaying action, waiting for that elusive 'perfect' moment.

I am reminded of a quote by Amelia Earhart, “The most effective way to do it is to do it.” This simple yet profound insight has become a guiding principle in my life.

Through my experiences and the various endeavors I’ve undertaken, this truth becomes ever more apparent.

Hesitation is, in essence, a dream-killer. It doesn’t outright reject dreams with a 'No', nor does it embrace them with a 'Yes'. Instead, it ensnares us in the indecisive terrain of 'not yet'.

However, when we shift from planning to doing when we take that first step into action, it's as if a powerful force comes alive within us.

If you are standing before an opportunity you’ve long prepared for, one that aligns with your dreams and aspirations, don’t let hesitation rob you of it.

In the face of uncertainty, remember Amelia Earhart's words: The most effective action is often to begin.

New Policies Threaten Our Clinic and Community
Dear Friends and OneMama Family,

Recent environmental and political policy changes have drastically impacted our ability to operate. Key partners who provided essential pre-postnatal supplies and medicines, as well as birth control, are no longer funded. Hence, we no longer have the medical supplies and equipment to run our health center. Additionally, all HIV prevention funding and supplies have suddenly become difficult to access or purchase locally, so we must find new, more costly international resources.

Although we did not receive these global funds directly, our partners did. Now that these funds have stopped, we struggle to secure the necessary supplies, resources, and partnerships to keep the health center running properly.
This crisis is affecting thousands of people who rely on our services daily. We fear that without urgent financial support, we may be unable to continue providing essential healthcare to our community.

Now More Than Ever, We Need Your Help
Without immediate financial donations, our ability to provide critical healthcare services is in jeopardy. We are calling on our donors, supporters, and the global community to help us continue our mission during these challenging times.

Our Journey: From Vision to Vital Lifeline to the Community

For the past 18 years, OneMama.org International Health Center has served as a lifeline to the greater Ugandan rural community in the Kayunga district that lives economically under $1.25 a day. From a simple vision working out of a mud-hut clinic to a fully functioning Health Center Three, we have overcome challenges, celebrated successes, and remained steadfast in our mission to provide healthcare and economic sustainability.

Our History & Milestones
-2006: Founder (Siobhan Neilland) visits Uganda and meets Mama Jamira, the inspiration behind OneMama.
-2008: Officially becomes a non-profit NGO Health Clinic.
--2010- 2012: Transforms from a mud-hut clinic into a modern health center.
-2015-2016: Adds a laboratory and pharmacy to enhance medical services.

Medical Care – Offering vaccinations, disease prevention, family planning, and emergency treatment.
-Economic Sustainability & Education – Training on family planning, malaria prevention, domestic violence prevention, and financial independence through local economic funding programs.

Recent Developments & Upgrades
-Despite financial setbacks, we have remained a vital hub for the region's government vaccinations, medical care, and birthing services.
