Mebrat's world turned upside down when violence forced her to flee her home. The trauma she endured stole her vision, leaving her in a darkness she never imagined. With strength and courage, she sought the help she needed to heal. She slowly reclaimed her sight. #HealingWithHope

Mebrat is a fighter. For 2 years, Mebrat lived in darkness—not just the darkness of the trauma she escaped, but a literal blindness that stole her independence. When all hope seemed lost, she sought help from Medical Teams.

Through compassionate mental health care, counseling, and the right medication, she began to heal. Light returned to her life—first to her mind, then to her eyes. Now, Mebrat can see again. She is living proof that healing is possible, even after the darkest of times. 💛

Your generosity was the key to HEALING for 4-year-old David, who arrived at a Medical Teams clinic severely malnourished. Thanks to supporters like you, the medications and therapeutic foods that David needed were there on the shelves, ready to be used to save his life.

David needed follow-up care to ensure that he was recovering, so his grandmother Kedress took the long trip on foot, carrying David, to and from the clinic every single day. Now, David is healthy and has his whole future ahead of him. 🩷

Your generosity is the key to providing essential #MentalHealth care. 🗝 Thank you for caring for people like Berhe.❤️ When Berhe struggled with his mental health, his mother, Aberehete, pushed him to seek help. She sought out a Medical Teams community health volunteer.

Aberehete helped her son enroll him in a mental health program. Then, she witnessed a miracle – for the first time in 14 years, her son was able to function normally, and his mental health improved. 🗝️
