Hamlin’s Giving Day was a huge success!

Thank you to all of you who supported Catherine Hamlin Fistula Foundation’s third Raise2Restore Giving Day on Thursday 29th August.

You – and a generous group of donors who matched your donations on the day – helped us raise an astonishing $432,058!

With your incredible support, Hamlin Fistula Ethiopia can equip and upgrade seven rural health clinics to transform them into Hamlin-supported midwifery clinics, providing improved health care services for women when they most urgently need it.

These clinics will receive essential medical equipment and supplies for specialised care to ensure safe deliveries, prevent horrific birth injuries and empower local communities.

“The compassion and care of the staff were exceptional. They accepted us when our own families rejected us. Now, I’m receiving the treatment and support I need. We are empowered here, without any discrimination. I’m truly thankful.” — Eshe

From everyone at Hamlin, THANK YOU for your support.
