Our GlobalGiving Fundraiser to bring affordable cervical cancer screening to women in Ghana and 1 new country is still open for donations.
We have some GREAT NEWS... because of our work (and others in Ghana) the government of Ghana has purchased enough Colposcopes to outfit the rest of the country. That means our work was so productive in Ghana that we are "done" with deploying in the country. Our work there WORKED!
We have successfully deployed this project already in Costa Rica and Ghana and are working on expanding to one more country (Nepal). We are ACTIVELY raising money to support our project.
Women around the world lack adequate cervical cancer screening technology… Our project will change that.
We have already deployed 10 colposcopes to both Costa Rica and Ghana and they are implemented, trained, and in use…. It’s very exciting to see!! We have recieved our quarterly impact reports and it's use and impact is vast... over 50,000 women have access to cervical cancer screening.
Our program trains and equips local providers and health clinics that will offer screening as part of the preventative wellness practice in several regions of each country we are deploying in. HERhealthEQ aims to ensure that more women have a chance of early cervical cancer detection and successful treatment outcomes. Ensuring women have quality screening for cervical cancer is our goal, especially from a cancer that is easily detected and treatable when detected early.
This campaign will remain open until the goal is met.
