Togo

The country is very underdeveloped economically. Its economy relies mainly on agriculture, which generates about 18% of the GDP and employs roughly 30% of the working population. Togo ranks among the countries with the lowest level of social development.

Overview:
  • poverty is widespread, especially in rural areas, where about 58.8% of households live below the poverty line; in urban areas, the rate is about 26.5%
  • key factors driving poverty include food insecurity (over 23% of children under five suffer from chronic malnutrition), limited access to health care, unemployment, and insufficient job opportunities, especially for young people

If we haven’t yet convinced you to support our beneficiaries at the pharmacy in Togo, let these eyes persuade you.

These are Mazalo’s eyes. They’ve been looking at this world for 80 years. Today, they show gratitude because the hypertension meds she receives from us in exchange for a symbolic bowl of corn is something Mazalo could never afford on her own.

There used to be sadness, suffering and helplessness in those eyes. Now, there’s joy and gratitude. That’s better. That’s what it’s all about: increasing the amount of good in the world.

And it’s all thanks to those who trusted us and decided to share with the patients in the poorest corners of Togo. By giving a little, they can change everything in our patients’ lives. For many, this pharmacy is truly a matter of life or death.

Let’s save Laudy and Jean from homelessness

Their entire life savings have been wiped out by the economic crisis. They haven’t been able to pay rent for nine months. If the landlord loses patience, they’ll end up on the street - with nowhere to turn. We don’t want them counting down the days until eviction!
