We want to eradicate obstetric fistula to change the lives of women in Ethiopia.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

My family and I have been supporting the Addis Ababa Fistula Hospital for many years.

The Fistula Hospital and its regional Hamlin Fistula Centres provide comprehensive care for women who suffer from incontinence, physical impairment, shame and marginalisation as a result of an obsteric fistula.

It is the only hospital of its kind in the world dedicated exclusively to women with obstetric fistula (a condition common in the developing world where the maternal health provisions are poor), and it treats all patients free of charge.

If you'd like to know more please visit:
