Global Health Charities' mission is to provide education and training to health care providers in underresourced countries with the goal of improving patient outcomes and quality of life for both patient and provider.
American Nursing Institute (ANI) opened its' doors in Mandalay in June to educate more nurses, and wishes to provide books & a proper library. Nurses deliver the majority of care in Myanmar, often in remote areas, where they encounter poor access to current heath care information, equipment or materials. Since sanctions were lifted in Myanmar, the situation has improved, but they are still far behind. There is only one nurse per 1,000 people. In the US, there are over 10 nurses per 1,000 people.
Every year, approximately 4.5 million infants and over 303,000 women die due to childbirth, the majority in developing countries. One major cause is infection due to birthing conditions and lack of access to clean supplies. These women and babies can be saved by providing simple items like a clean razor blade and string to tie off the umbilical cord.
This project will provide winter relief to Syrian, Palestinian and Iraqi refugees in Lebanon. With your support, we will provide thermal gloves, hats, thick socks, hand and foot warmers, and coloring books/crayons/small balls for the children. Last year's winter brought severe cold and unlivable conditions with snow, high winds, rain and freezing temperatures. This program provides essential items, particularly for children and the elderly, who are most vulnerable.
