7,091 Pounds of Life-Changing Help
Doctors and health workers in central Ghana do not have the basic medicines and supplies their patients need. Illnesses and infections go untreated. Pharmacies in clinics and hospitals are empty. Patients need to travel long distances in search of medicines. But all that changed when you stepped in to help.
Thanks to your support, 22 pallets of medical supplies and medicines weighing 7,091 pounds arrived in Ghana in July 2018. Contents included syringes, pain killers, urine test kits, heavy duty scrub sponges, blood collection sets and wound dressing materials.
These critical supplies and medicines ‒ and many more ‒ are being put to use in health facilities in six districts. Our partner in Ghana, SMAid International, says, “We are indebted to American Leprosy Missions for the shipment of these drugs to Ghana to help reach out to the vulnerable and marginalized in the districts and communities where we operate.”
You have made a real difference for the thousands of men, women and children who now have access to medicines and medical supplies. Thank you.
Hope Starts With Healing
Right now, men, women, and children are suffering—isolated by disease, alone in their pain, and without hope. But together, we can change that.
From delivering critical medicines and supplies to equipping pastors with training and resources to care for their communities, we are reaching even the most marginalized people with the healing and hope they most desperately need. With your support today, Hope Rises!
