Community health

When care travels closer

A community clinic and outreach services can reduce the distance between vulnerable families and essential health support.

Distance, transport and cost can turn a manageable health need into a serious barrier. Local and outreach care help close that gap.

Essential care should be close enough to reach.

A clinic rooted in community

Pashello Community Clinic supports orphans, older people and other vulnerable groups with basic primary care while referring patients who need hospital services.

Reaching beyond the clinic

Eye and dental outreach, physiotherapy and sunscreen support for people with albinism extend care to people who may otherwise go without it.

Care becomes more equitable when the journey to reach it becomes shorter.
