Mali Medical Relief is beginning a new presence on the web by converting its site to Word Press. We would like to invite all of our friends to make our presence known by liking and/or sharing our site.
We also want to remind everyone of an Amazon campaign. If you shop with Amazon.com they will donate 0.5% of every purchase you make to Mali Medical Relief. Just select us as your charity of interest. It’s absolutely no cost to you!
Thank you for considering us in your charitable giving and happy spring!
Mali Medical Relief will soon be converting to WordPress for its Web Page Development. This will enable updates to be made easier and more comprehensive. We have started a Youtube account to post more pictures and videos of our work and Mali in general. Click here to see the latest slide show.
I wanted to take the opportunity to extend my gratitude for your support of Mali Medical Relief Fund. This year has been truly remarkable, with us making expansions and continuing our great work throughout Mali. There have been major social, political, and public health upheavals in the last 12 months, but we are still carrying on with our work. Thank you to our fantastic teams led by Drs. Sylla and Diallo at Gabriel Toure in Bamako, and the MMRF board led by Pierre Dabo in Dioila.
This year we have helped 69 patients in Dioila with major hospitalizations, surgeries, and cases of malaria and pneumonia, malnutrition, and meningitis.
At Gabriel Toure we have helped 57 inpatients with very complex diagnoses and problems. In particular we have funded surgery for colostomy, chemotherapy for acute leukemia, therapy for multiple patients with acute renal failure, cases of HIV and tuberculosis, and many more with cerebral malaria and pneumonia. I have attached the Bamako site review so you can see a complete list of cases and details.
The Ebola epidemic highlighted the need for increasing the number of skilled practitioners in West Africa. Our team is committed to funding a residency slot and has selected a candidate. Best of Luck to Dr. Diallo, as he prepares for his entrance exams. We are cheering for you!
We are so grateful for your continuing support. Please consider us in your annual giving. We accept online donations at our websitewww.malimedicalrelief.org and by snail Mail:
