Help find, heal and empower women every day
Join our Hamlin Regular Giver Community
Join a community of people who are determined to eradicate devastating childbirth injuries, like obstetric fistula. Forever. A regular gift of just $3.30 a day will provide life-changing treatment to women in Ethiopia suffering the physical, emotional and psychological trauma of obstetric fistula.
Obstetric fistula is one of the worst things that can happen to a woman. Without medical assistance, women can experience obstructed labour for days. In Ethiopia, this often results in the loss of a baby, and debilitating internal injuries which leave a woman incontinent. In pain, ashamed, alone, and without medical treatment, these women become isolated from their families and communities.
Becoming a Hamlin Regular Giver is the most effective way to support the work that our pioneering founder, Australian surgeon Dr Catherine Hamlin started over 65 years ago. Catherine and the dedicated team at Hamlin Fistula Ethiopia have restored the health, dignity and independence of over 70,000 women through free surgery, holistic care and rehabilitation.
It’s compassionate, inspiring humanitarians like you who continue to help find, heal and empower Ethiopian women who, right now, are suffering in pain, shame and isolation with horrific birth injuries.
Your regular ongoing gifts will help restore the lives of the most marginalised women in the world.
Your regular donations can help find, heal and empower women every day
