by | posted in: Uncategorized | 2,428

 

Lake Manyara Serena Safari Lodge supports the sensitization of HIV/AIDS, child immunization and maternal care, through various partnerships and its in-house clinic. The Lodge has recently embarked on another health issue plaguing the community. Under the ethos of the Serena Wellness Program that aims to promote health and wellbeing, Lake Manyara Serena Safari Lodge and Lions Club of Arusha jointly organized a free eye camp on 24th June 2018 from 9.00am – 3.00pm at Kirurumo Lutheran Health Centre in Manyara area.

According to World Health Organization (WHO), it is estimated that at least one percent of Tanzania’s population is affected by vision impairment. And over 22,000 people live with avoidable blindness however, lack resources to access timely treatment.

Just like other senses, sight helps us connect with our environment, better perceive our reality and can improve the holistic quality of life. The eye camp received quite a lot of foot traffic and benefitted a total of 379 members of the local community of which 257 people went through a vision screening process while another 122 persons were given spectacles. Patients with cataracts and other eye serious ailments were referred to St. Elizabeth Hospital and Moshi Referral Hospital.

Lions Club also donated a 29-inch television to Imani Orphanage Center and a tree planting activity was also carried out to commemorate the day with 60 trees being planted and an additional 240 trees planted during the last week of June 2018 by Serena Hotels.

To strengthen this initiative, the Lions Club of Arusha has opened a new branch club by the name of Lions Club of Lake Manyara and 5 Staff from Lake Manyara Serena Safari Lodge have been inspired to become members in this Club.

Serena Hotels programs and initiatives remain fully aligned to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) set out by the United Nations Development Programme. As part of our long –term entrepreneurial approach on sustainability across the value chain, we not only generate a shared value between us and the communities we operate within but also promote wellness initiatives to encourage good health, prosperity, give hope and create an opportunity to enhance the quality of life.

    Asking questions are actually good thing if you are not understanding something entirely, but this piece
    of writing gives good understanding yet.

    Yesterday, while I was at work, my sister stole my iphone and tested to see if it can survive a 40 foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now broken and she has 83 views.

    Hey this is somewhat of off topic but I was wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have
    to manually code with HTML. I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding experience so I wanted to get advice from
    someone with experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Great blog! Do you have any tips and hints for
    aspiring writers? I’m planning to start my own website soon but I’m a
    little lost on everything. Would you propose starting
    with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option? There are
    so many choices out there that I’m totally confused ..

    Any suggestions? Thank you!

    Have you ever thought about publishing an e-book or guest authoring on other sites?
    I have a blog based on the same ideas you discuss and would really like to have
    you share some stories/information. I know my visitors would value your work.

    If you are even remotely interested, feel free to send me an email.

    Its like you read my mind! You seem to grasp so much about this,
    such as you wrote the e book in it or something.
    I believe that you just could do with some percent to pressure the message house a little bit, but other
    than that, that is excellent blog. A great read.

    Heya! I understand this is kind of off-topic however I needed to ask.
    Does building a well-established blog like yours take a lot of work?
    I am brand new to blogging however I do write in my diary every day.
    I’d like to start a blog so I will be able to share my personal experience and
    views online. Please let me know if you have any
    recommendations or tips for brand new aspiring bloggers.
    Thankyou!

    Howdy, I do believe your blog could be having browser compatibility issues.

    Whenever I take a look at your site in Safari, it looks fine
    however, if opening in IE, it has some overlapping issues.
    I simply wanted to give you a quick heads up! Aside from that, great website!

    better! Looking at this post reminds me of my
    previous roommate! He constantly kept preaching about this.
    I’ll forward this post to him. Pretty sure he will have a great read.
    Thanks for sharing!
