Our running programs supporting Ayder Hospital of Mekelle Universitiy

Since the beginning of the war in the province of Tigray, we have been unable to send any members of Etiopia-Witten to Tigray. We had to change our objectives and focus on financing humanitarian aid for the staff of the Ayder Hospital and its patients in need.

We have installed these programs:

• Financial aid for women raped in the Tigray war at Ayder University Hospital and Mekelle City Hospital.
      One-Stop Center - food for women giving birth in hospital
      Mama Kid - Kit to care for the newborn and basic food ration for several weeks for the mother upon discharge from the hospital.
