This ensures that the materials are used effectively, directly addressing the urgent needs of patients and saving lives immediately.
Community and Global Support:
The mission emphasizes the importance of global community support, highlighting that donations are vital lifelines for the people of Sudan. The direct delivery of supplies and medications to frontline staff ensures their immediate and impactful use, alleviating suffering and saving lives.
