Gambia / Guinea Bissau Health Clinics

This initiative will have a lasting impact in rural Gambia and rural Guinea-Gissau, including the Bijagos Islands, by tackling systemic healthcare challenges and promoting sustainable improvements in health outcomes. Your donation supports essential resources to address ongoing healthcare needs, enhancing access to medical care even in remote villages and ultimately reducing infant mortality rates. Giving special attention to the health of mothers and babies will bring about significant and lasting improvements.

This initiative will work to provide infrastructure that will offer several services for the immediate and surrounding communities, including free or sliding-scale medical care, medications (with quite a few hospital beds for those needing long-term care for diseases such as malaria, diabetes, and malnutrition), maternal-pre/post-natal care, early childhood care clinics, and the gamut of other diseases and health care needs.

Your support will give women in need access to post-natal kits with baby shampoo, baby powder, lotion, towels, clothing, diapers, and more. We will also work to support and enhance their infrastructure and give access to medical in rural communities, thus improving health outcomes for both mothers and children.
