Afghanistan, the land locked country in-between Central and South Asia needs our help. After decades of war, terrorism, poverty, and malnutrition, the Taliban have taken control but still the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan remains one of the world’s least developed countries. 

We will be in Afghanistan this June 1st to assist local organizations with WASH (Water, Sanitation, Hygiene) and ultrasound training. Dr. Suzanne will be teaching and giving multiple Butterfly ultrasound machines to the local healthcare providers. This new technology and education will transform their point-of-care abilities, empowering Afghan doctors and midwives “to seamlessly integrate ultrasound into daily assessments, diagnoses, and treatments”. 

Along with important sanitation and hygiene instruction, we will also be sharing 100 water filters to the parched people of Afghanistan with the goal of giving them 100,000 liters of safe water per day for years to come.  

Approximately 85 percent of Afghans live on less than one dollar a day, and the life expectancy is only 64 years. With the Afghan people enduring countless natural and manmade tragedies, we want to be a small part of being the hand that lifts these people up. One of the greatest gifts we all have living in our privileged world, is the ability to help those in need. You’re welcome to join us in giving Afghanistan a helping hand. Thank you.
