Hospital.
In total, more than 10,000 patients have been treated since the hospital was opened.
In addition, with help of German doctors, operations were carried out – far above the local medical standards. Through several volunteer and doctor visits, we have made enormous progress in hygiene, structure and expertise. Further, we have created a medical herb garden.
School.
By now 320 students attend the school every day.
In addition, our auditorium will be completed soon! Then gatherings of all students and lectures in front of large groups are possible.
Women empowerment.
Around 200 of the students are girls. Twenty of them live in a boarding school, with 12 of their children being cared for at an in-house crèche.
This is not special for us, in Télimélé however it would have been unimaginable only a few years ago. Often, girls are married at the age of 14 and are thus directly dependent on their husband. They have little chance for education, work and independence. We have already changed that for 200 girls!
