Medical Gifts

The health of our children is vital to their development and happiness, so we go the extra mile to make sure that they are fit and well, and can enjoy their childhood. Many children come into our care neglected and sick, without ever having seen a doctor, dentist or optician. Meeting their medical needs is an essential part of our care.

Teshome was grateful to receive a covid vaccination so he could feel safe as he studies for his exams.

“When Covid cases began I worried because we live in a crowded environment with poor sanitation. This makes us vulnerable. But my dream came true and now I am vaccinated. The confidence this has given me helps me focus on my university entrance examination. This all happened because of Stand by Me.” 
Teshome, aged 18, Ethiopia
