The Link between Poor Health and Poverty
Health care should be everyone’s right. Yet about half the world’s population don’t have access to basic health care. Muslim Hands is committed to helping people access health care so they can live a more promising life.
We operate a myriad of health-care initiatives in underprivileged communities. When an emergency like an Earthquake, drought, or a flood strikes, we run clinics and mobile health units to provide lifesaving treatment in countries like Yemen and Pakistan.
To curb the shocking maternal and infant mortality rates in Sub Saharan Africa, we have built Motherkind clinics in Mali and Niger which provide free, life-saving health care to pregnant women, new mothers, and infants in need.
We also operate eye camps in underprivileged communities. In Africa, cataracts are the leading cause of blindness and vision loss. Through our eye camps, we provide free cataract-removal surgery for those who cannot afford it. Our health care solutions are tailored and specific, addressing the needs of individual communities.
Lack of inadequate health services claim millions of lives around the globe and has enormous economic consequences, forcing children to stay out of school and resulting in adults who are unable to support their families.
Through your support, we can provide health care to the less fortunate, so they can build a prosperous future for themselves and their families.
How You Can Help
Our Response To the Global Pandemic
This past year, the Coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic has brought the world to a standstill. The virus has already claimed the lives of hundreds of thousands, and many more will still be affected as the world patiently waits for a vaccine.
The consequences of this pandemic are unimaginable in the countries where Muslim Hands is already delivering life-saving aid – countries where healthcare systems have collapsed, and where conflict and disaster have wiped out all food supplies.
Despite the challenges our teams on the ground remain committed to helping those most in need, responding to the pandemic by:
- Creating isolation packs that contain basic food items such as rice, cereals, and tinned food, as well as diapers, toilet paper, and soap.
- Producing medical packs for global front line medical officials, including medical masks, medical gowns, surgical disposable gloves, medical goggles, and hand sanitizers.
- Generating awareness and education about personal hygiene to avoid a further spread of the virus.
You can help us continue our vital work by donating to our health fund so that our experts on the ground may respond to the changing nature of the pandemic.
