Ethiopia
Among the poorest of African nations is Ethiopia; with the third largest population of HIV/AIDS and scarcity of resources for food and community growth, the health status of the general population is problematic. An overwhelming 60 to 80 percent of the health problems are due to infectious communicable disease and lack of proper nutrition. WPF has sponsored the Rehoboth Health Center with health equipment, facilities and medical equipment to enable their staff to deliver more and better health services.
WPF sponsored two teams (including surgical teams) to the remote Somaliland regions of Jijiga, Harar and Dera Dawa in October 2007 and to the Northern Highlands in Mekele and Wakuro in August 2008.
WPF also sponsored the Rehoboth Health Center by providing health equipment, facilities and medical equipment to enable their staff to deliver more and better health services.
Additionally, WPF sponsored the Little House of the Poor Orphanage in Wakuro with medical treatment, education material, clothing and a contaner shipment in November 2009. |
