Making a Donation
Why donate?
According to the World Health Organization, in order to achieve its Millennium Development Goals, Zimbabwe needs at least 250 doctors, nurses and midwives per 100,000 population. In the current situation, this equates to more than doubling the present numbers of health staff.
The health-system infrastructure in Zimbabwe is in a state of severe disrepair as a result of underfunding and a lack of maintenance. Hospital and clinic equipment such as laundry machines, kitchen equipment and boilers are also non-functional. Thus, most institutions are not able to sterilize theatre and maternity equipment, to cook, or to provide clean linen. The hospitals and maternity units have not even been able to provide hot water for patients.
Although the needs are many, ZimHealth-Europe is currently focusing on raising financial resources to procure and distribute medicines, diagnostics, vaccines and other commodities to contribute towards the rehabilitation of health facilities in Zimbabwe.
