TEARS OF A CHILD BRIDE.

Hello Friend,

Today is International Day to End Obstetric Fistula. Please join us in the quest to eradicate the scourge.

Obstetric Fistula is a hole in the birth canal caused by prolonged obstructed labor. The woman is left with chronic incontinence and in most cases a stillborn baby. Fistula is also caused by the trauma in the vagina in cases of sexual abuse.

Women with Fistula leak urine, feces or both. The leak is constant and humiliating. If left untreated, Fistula can lead to chronic medical problems including ulcerations, kidney disease, and nerve damage in the legs.

Fistula is almost entirely preventable.
Fistula is curable.

Most women with the condition do not know that treatment is available, and most times they cannot afford it. The average cost of fistula treatment and post-operative care is $500.

Will you pledge a donation today?
No amount is too small!

The aggregate pennies of like-minded individuals will go a long way in giving hope to many.

If you can’t give, but still want to support our cause, please share our page with your friends, family members, and coworkers. With more people aware of our cause, we’ll be one step closer to getting help to the girls and women in Africa who need them.

The team at Women Shaping Africa would like to thank you in advance for your support!
