Bringing Excellent, Whole-person Care to the Neediest of People:

Obstructed labor causes severe injuries which effect many aspects of the victim's life.  Fistula surgery is difficult, requiring a broad range of reconstructive skills.  But, with a minimum of technology, excellent results can be achieved.  The world's poor women have every right to the best in medical care, no matter where they live.  The cost of surgical care to a single fistula victim averages about $450.  This relatively tiny amount can change a life, restoring a woman from despair to hope. 

Want to change a life?  A gift of $450 will cover the medical costs for a woman in Niger today....
