ORGANIZATION: The Fistula Foundation

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
Fistula Logo

We are in the midst of preparing two large mailing projects: our April Newsletters and our Mother's Day Cards greeting cards.

These are important communications that we send to our donors. They play an essential role in our annual fundraising efforts. The donations we receive go directly to women in the developing world who are suffering from obstetric fistula.

We are looking for help with stuffing envelopes, sealing, and stamping. There may be a small amount of gift wrapping as well. Snacks will be provided!

Thank you so much for your interest! Please reach out if you have any questions.

About The Fistula Foundation

Location:

1700 The Alameda, Suite 300, San Jose, CA 95126, US

Mission Statement

Fistula Foundation does one thing and we do it well: treat obstetric fistula. Funding from our generous donors allows us to provide our partners in the field with human and financial resources that enable as many women as possible to receive the treatment they need. Our partners are carefully vetted and every site we fund is coordinated and staffed by local nurses, heroic doctors and care workers who understand the community and understand how to provide the best care possible to the women they treat.

Description

Fistula Foundation believes no woman should endure a life of misery and isolation simply for trying to bring a child into this world. That’s why we’re dedicated to ending the suffering caused by obstetric fistula, a childbirth injury caused by prolonged, unrelieved obstructed labor that renders a woman incontinent - an injury that can only be treated through surgery.

Since adopting a global mission in 2009, we have supported treatment in 29 countries throughout Africa and Asia.


We are the largest private charitable foundation supporting fistula treatment globally.
Support from our generous donors allows women living in places like Ethiopia, Afghanistan and Bangladesh to receive free, high quality fistula repair surgeries that can change their lives forever.
