Steven Karugaba Markson is the CEO & Founder of Medical Africa International which he created when he went with a friend on a short mission trip with a team of 15 missionaries from USA. They visited many families, one of which had 13 children being cared for by a single mother. The father had just passed away and left the family in total poverty. Two of the children had big wounds left untreated. The missionaries and the friends did what they could to help these children receive medical treatment and this became a burden on their hearts to start praying for this community in Uganda. In praying and reading the Bible, God revealed a plan to Steven Karugaba Markson on how they can become advocates to those disabled families in Africa who are hurting physically, spiritually and emotionally henceforth Medical Africa International was created as an NGO. MAI Profile: MAI is a registered non-governmental organization (S-5914/9959) devoted to advocacy for disabled families, by providing health/ nutrition, education, counselling and promoting long-lasting solutions to their problems through the local church. This includes providing of care and assistance in order they achieve temperate standards of livings. Disabled families are people who cannot depend on their own to provide healthcare, education and assistance; it is this, which distinguishes them from other wealthy families. However, these families have no access to family aid that is why MAI coordinates the international community and other organizations to respond to their particular needs. The organization began its operations on 9th February 2007 but completed its final registration with the NGO board in 2012 and its Headquarters are presently located in Wakiso District near Wakiso District headquarters opposite Wakiso S. S. S in Uganda East Africa.
