Esther was orphaned, married as a young teen, then developed a fistula during childbirth. Because of the fistula, her husband abused her and eventually left. Can you donate so she can lease land and buy seeds to farm? #beyondfistula https://t.co/GxaC22TNbZ

"Catherine would gracefully walk into the ward to see the patients, sit by their bedside, hold their hands and ask how they are doing. She saw the whole human being, not just the patient. It is what has led me to dedicate myself to caring for women with pelvic floor injuries"
Catherine said everyone loved a note of gratitude.
"My note to her is,
Dear Catherine,
Women around the world will be forever grateful for the exquisite risks you took with your husband to develop a model of care for women with obstetric fistula.
You will be missed,
Tracy"
Dr. Itengre and ARENA are passionate about healing women suffering from childbirth injuries. With your help- and the SowHope $25,000 matching campaign- we hope to build a clinic designated to women suffering from childbirth injuries in Burkina Faso. https://t.co/dp3bwwokPT
