Medical for Orphanage

In case of extreme poverty there are always huge number of orphaned and abandoned children. Political strife, inefficient administration, corruption, and insufficient access to health care build an atmosphere where children are adversely impacted. Our goal is to serve the most disadvantaged and vulnerable children in a sustainable and intensive manner. Without addressing social, medical, and economic problems, these children would most likely be forced to drop out from school, fall back into the cycle of poverty and starve to death. It is crucial to reach out to thousands of children and offer them a school uniform, a healthy meal and genuine care.

There are around 140 million children across the globe who have lost both of their parents and have been forced to live with other family members such as grandparents or in some case they have no option but to turn to the street.

Almost 10,000 children become orphans every day!

Most orphanages are short on staff to begin with, and simply cannot spare a staff member to stay in the hospital with just one child. So for many children, the critical care they need ends up getting postponed or delayed — then postponed or delayed again. Or, orphanages feel forced to settle for less-than-expert care in a local hospital, as opposed to the expert medical care found in a bigger city.

Then, there’s the issue of post-operative care.

“Normally,” says , “they only keep kids for a day or two and then [send them] back to the orphanage. But when a child has surgery, they need better attention and therapy to recover. And [in an orphanage], it is hard to protect them from infection.”
