Masanga Hospital Reporting

"My name is Dauda Lahai and I have been in the medical field since 2009 as a Community Health Officer. Currently I am working for three months in Masanga Hospital as a student in Basic Surgical and Obstetrical procedures.
I am very pleased to invite you to celebrate this remarkable day in my life as I successfully restore through God’s will the life of Hawanatu and her baby.

Hawanatu is a 22 old women who is pregnant for the second time. She had undergone a Caeserean 3 years ago in Masanga Hospital. Because she is living in a small village about 5 hours walking distance to the nearest health facility, she was admitted with a term pregnancy waiting for a safe delivery.

On March 25th 2012 she had some lower abdominal pains but did not progress into labour. The following morning she complained about serious pain on the scar of the previous operation. Because of her condition we had to decide to do a second caesarean section. With the supervisio... (Read more)

2 more project goals completed!

In a district covering more than 300.000 people, Masanga is the only hospital performing this potentially life saving operation.

- We’ve also financed the running costs of (Read more)

Update from St. Andrews Baby Unit - March 2012

There is never a quiet day in the St Andrews Baby Unit…as you can imagine with so many small babies and toddlers. The last few weeks have been exceptionally busy and have seen some exciting changes. The unit welcomed in two new toddlers a few weeks ago. One already had two brothers living at Kandara Children’s Home and another came along with his older sister who joined the main children’s home and is able to visit her brother regularly.

The new arrivals meant that it was time for two of the older children to move up to the main children’s home after three years under the care of Mother Lucy and her team. Newton was just days old when he came to the St Andrews Baby Unit along with his twin sister back in 2008 and Jacob was a few months old when his mother passed away and he joined the St Andrews Baby Unit family.
Another new arrival quickly followe... (Read more)

80 new members from a danish high school!

On tuesday the 7th of february, Matias Ignatius and Jacob Sønderskov went to visit a danish highschool in the small town Tørring on the countryside. They went as representatives of Help Every Day and wanted to use this opportunity to tell the 400 students and their teachers about the work we're doing at Help Every Day, the potential of our new movement, and hopefully engage a lot of the listeners to actually choose their own daily Coin of Compassion.

It turned out to be a fantastic day with massive positive response from both teachers and students towards our common cause and current projects. Before the visit, a generous person had donated 1 ticket for the legendary danish music festival "Roskilde Festival" for us to put on the line among all the people who signed up for their Coin of Compassion before Matias and Jacob went home again. This turned out to be a great idea, and in combination with the altruistic enthusiam among ... (Read more)
