This week, something special happened!

With the help of friends, volunteer firefighters, @GiantContainers, @MetropolitanMov, and volunteers from @Sunnybrook, we were able to crate & pack 32 infant incubators to ship to Zimbabwe!

Here's a very small token of our appreciation:

(IMR - Infant Mortality Rate)

[Thrive Project Zimbabwe @ThriveProjectZW]

Thrive Project Zimbabwe was established to address the country's soaring IMR. The health of mothers & babies is a direct reflection on the health of a nation, and Dr. Mashumba's heartfelt plea is galvanizing. We will not quit until no woman dies giving life, and babies thrive!

Here is a photo of Nurses Dube & Ndlovu from UBH in Bulawayo unboxing some medical supplies that we sent to their NICU & Maternity Wards in 2018. We're looking forward to expanding our support in 2019, and make a meaningful difference in the lives of mothers & babies in Zimbabwe!

[Thrive Project Zimbabwe @ThriveProjectZW]

We're back from a brief but productive visit to Zimbabwe! On this trip we were able to visit some of the clinics that we supported in 2018, including UBH Hospital in Bulawayo.

[Thrive Project Zimbabwe @ThriveProjectZW]

We were welcomed with love and gratitude, and we were incredibly impressed and inspired by the resourcefulness and dedication of the healthcare delivery teams on the ground, in the midst of extremely dire conditions.
