Africa is a populous developing continent with some of the worst healthcare issues in the world, including an AIDS pandemic, malaria, STDs, poor quality healthcare and substandard health education services.
Infant mortality is high and life expectancy is low.
Africans are dying of preventable illnesses, deaths that could have been averted if only help was at hand.
WISH For Africa is a direct response to this humanitarian need.
We are providing accessible healthcare by building primary healthcare centres in densely populated, low income areas.
We are providing affordable medical treatments by subsidising the costs of healthcare to the users in these poor communities.
We are helping to improve standards by encouraging healthcare professionals to volunteer their time and skills in training our local staff of doctors and nurses.
We are helping to reduce the cost of delivering care in these communities by providing donated second-hand medical equipment and supplies.
We are improving how healthcare is delivered in poor communities of Africa by designing workable and implementable healthcare strategies and solutions to solve healthcare delivery problems. Two of such innovative strategies include pharmacy networks and healthcare microfinance.
We are advocating for improved standards by encouraging local policy makers to institute reforms and improve on healthcare statistics of their constituencies.
We are raising awareness about the plight of Africans, the men, women and children who are daily enduring the hardship of grinding poverty.
You can help by donating money and medical supplies, by volunteering your time and skills, by attending our events and by inviting us to yours!
