Gosia Tomaszewska has just returned from Togo with loads of news and greetings from our charges. The smiles in the photos speak for themselves. For years you have been giving these people the chance to think about tomorrow with a smile on their faces. In Togo, we heal by providing help to those who could never afford it themselves.

In the first photo, you can see Florence looking after the pharmacy. She is the extension of your hands on site. Every year, she dispenses medicines to nearly 4,000 patients, for whom a trip to the city and the purchase of prescribed medicines is financially as out of reach as a flight into space for us!

Marie Claire, whom we have supported for years, can be seen smiling at you in the next photo. Thanks to several trips to neighbouring Burkina Faso that were funded by you and, above all, thanks to the fact that Gosia Tomaszewska, who met little Marie Claire and immediately took her under her wing, is on the spot, the girl now has straight legs. The little star has had two knee operations. She has swapped her wooden prostheses for colourful dresses in which she dances and happily goes to school.

The family project and the pharmacy in Saoudé are very meek projects. Nothing spectacular. Simply providing company to people who are unwell. Thank you for doing this with us.

We need to dry out the buildings as quickly as possible

Urgent help for flood victims

The most vulnerable are the elderly and disabled, living in remote rural areas and small towns, where reaching them is difficult. You’ll be informed about every penny spent to help them. 100% of the funds raised will go directly towards targeted, precise aid tailored to the needs of those affected.
