“Alex dreams of being a doctor and opening two hospitals. One in the city, and one in the village. His dream is to offer free care to those who can’t afford it in the village, and bring in funding for that hospital from the one in the city. Ingenuity. It is written all over Alex’s life, in the big and small things alike.”

We pulled up to the gate of Fort Portal International Nursing School in a four-wheel drive Toyota van that took us on a safari and also served as our means of transportation to the local market. After signing in, the gate was opened and we were allowed on school grounds.
