For over 50 years, Dr. James Masloff dedicated his life to serving others. Driven by his deep faith in Christ the Lord, Jim believed every person should be cared for and shown grace, so his service was both physical and spiritual. On February 6th, 2026, Dr. Masloff left this world and entered his heavenly home with Jesus. His impact reached even to Uganda, where he mentored and inspired Dr. Moses Batwala of the Jinja District to continue leading our medical mission efforts in traveling to remote villages to treat the most vulnerable who cannot afford to seek medical attention.
Today, I am asking for your help to turn that inspiration into a lasting reality.
We are launching a campaign to erect the Dr. James Masloff Medical Center in Jinja, Uganda. The average daily wage in Uganda is about $3.00. Many families simply cannot afford to visit a Government run medical clinic. Preventable diseases go untreated, and maternal mortality remains high due to a lack of immediate, local care. During the many mission trips to Uganda, Dr. Masloff shared his heart often of wanting to do more for the people of Uganda that he came to love. By erecting this clinic, we are not just honoring his memory; we are fulfilling his mission. Dr. Jim stated, “his time as medical director of MLI has been the most rewarding period of his life.”
**Our Goal: $12,000 by October 1st, 2026, to complete construction, procure essential medical equipment, and provide initial funding for local staff.
How You Can Help
Your contribution will directly impact thousands of people who currently lack access to basic care:
• $100 helps purchase essential diagnostic tools (thermometers, blood pressure monitors).
• $500 funds the construction of one examination room and/or basic equipment (exam table).
• $1,000+ helps sponsor the solar power installation, ensuring the clinic has consistent electricity and to power the water well Dr. Masloff contributed for the school’s compound where the clinic will be located.
