OVERVIEW

The team will travel and serve in the northern Karamoja region, the most impoverished region in Uganda.

COVID-19 Policy

Samaritan’s Feet will follow and adhere to individual country requirements regarding COVID-19 testing and vaccination.

Samaritan’s Feet will help determine the most reliable, cost-effective options and will help coordinate the process.

Travel insurance is included in your trip cost and that policy does cover some of these expenses.
