Gently used shawls/wraps/scarves clothing item donations for recovering women

General information

Overall description

Gently used shawls/wraps/scarves clothing item donations for recovering women who receive medical help at the fistula foundation hospitals in Ethiopia (Addis Ababa) and other branches of the fistula foundation hospitals will be collected and shipped to their facility of choice.
These shawl/wrap items are part of the psycho-social aspect of recovery from fistula treatment and subsequent return to their villages/society.

If my offer is accepted I will start collecting shawls. I have a few but I plan to collect as many as I can and then ship them to the recipient.

Timing

Shipment of collected items to be shipped in bulk within 12-16 weeks of the facility's acceptance of this donation project. This is to allow enough time to collect donations for shipping.

Thousands of people suffer silently and collapse without any support due to lack of resources and affordability of medical assistance.
