My name is Wakilongo Lwesso, and I grew up in Bukavu-Congo/DRC. Due to war in my country, I was resettled to the USA via the Unites nation (UNHCR). With the opportunity here, I was able to finish my school, worked hard and built a hospital (Hôpital La Grâce) in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The hospital was completed and opened in July 2023. Our next phase is to continue providing health care to underserved, and vulnerable women, children, and elderly population in Congo-RCD. Find in our link the video of the stated hospital.

As you may be aware, the population's health status in the Democratic Republic of the Congo is alarming. The seven principal causes of disability-adjusted life years lost are malaria, diarrhoeal diseases, protein-energy malnutrition, lower respiratory tract infections, HIV, preterm birth complications and tuberculosis. All these principal causes are preventable. Another factor is the lack of reliable and equipped medical facilities. With your donations, FOWAL-Hôpital La Grâce will acquire critical medical diagnostic equipment to properly diagnose patients' diseases. Secondly, your donations will help our organization to continue providing free health care to pregnant women and children.

My goal is to help eliminate deaths due to preventable causes and improve the wellbeing of mothers, newborns, children, and adolescents through the provision of High-quality Medicine with Extraordinary care to our patients.

We are pleading you to consider donating to this fundraiser. Any donation, no matter how small, would be hugely appreciated and make a difference.

Thanks

Dr. Wakilongo Lwesso
