A team from ReachAnother Foundation, a foundation that has provided life-saving surgery for more than 10,000 babies with SPINA BIFIDA & HYDROCEPHALUS in Ethiopia, visited Hiwot Fana Specialized Comprehensive Hospital and had a brief discussion with CHAMPS and the Hospital team.
The foundation is organizing training with the hospital nurses involved in NTD care. The training focuses on pre- and post-surgery care.
Reachanother is a nonprofit organization that strives to solve the hydrocephalus and spina bifida crisis in Ethiopia through treatment, aftercare, and prevention solutions. Similarly, CHAMPS has launched the SALT project that works on prevention, treatment, pre- and post-surgery care, and follow-up for babies with NTD cases; in the meantime, more than 50 children had surgery since July 2023.
