People We Helped

We support many members of our community with diverse medical needs.

We documented some of their stories here, where sustained support was needed and consent for publication was given.

Ben

Ben is a boy whose untreated leg fracture complicated to osteomyelitis – an infection inside the bone that is difficult to resolve. For over two years, we treated Ben with wound cleaning, antibiotics, nutritious food and several hospital visits. We arranged orthopaedic surgery and Ben is heading for a full recovery.

Anna

Anna had a chronic condition that made her breasts enlarged and very painful. We got her diagnosed, ensured she received the recommended surgery, then managed her surgical wounds, which fully healed. Now she is living a normal life again and has returned to school to pursue her dream of becoming a teacher.

Bridget

Bridget was a 2-year-old girl with severe malnutrition who was too weak to stand. When we found her, we began treatment with therapeutic feeds and started resolving her chronic diarrhoea. Tragically, our intervention was too late and Bridget did not survive.
