This project will provide emergency and street medicine to 5,000 people, including 2,500 street-connected children in Mwanza. Over 80% of clients seek care at primary facilities like the Bisou Bailey Medical Dispensary. Funds will train first responders, strengthen referrals, provide supplies, and run mobile clinics. Fundraising is through Samson Hingi's Mount Kilimanjaro climb (22-29 March 2026), raising $10 per meter to scale lifesaving community healthcare.
Poverty, weak infrastructure, and limited services in Mwanza and nearby regions trap families in cycles of poor health. Nearly 2,500 children in Mwanza live on the streets, struggling daily for food and safety. With scarce emergency care and no regular access to medical services, preventable injuries and illnesses become fatal. Stigma, poverty, and lack of protection deepen health inequities, leaving vulnerable children and families without essential care when they need it most.
