We want to thank all of our donors. Without your generous and consistent financial support, we would not be able to help all of these patients, in addition to the patients at our full-time clinics which operate year long.

MOTHERS UNION HEALTH OUTREACH - AUGUST 2024 The Mothers Union is a powerful force for good in every Anglican Diocese in Africa. This year, we partnered with the Mother’s Union of Kafanchan Diocese to conduct a health education and prevention program in four rural areas of the diocese.  In addition to our clinic-based outreach missions, we partner with Cornerstone Health Foundation to do monthly mobile clinics at many church locations to serve the urban and rural poor.  Like almost everyone else, the Covid pandemic has forced Kateri Medical Services to do things differently. We have been prevented from traveling to Nigeria for our annual medical outreach missions, first because of the Covid restrictions and second because of security problems. Prior to the pandemic, we were a very hands-on enterprise in terms of engaging with our local partners and in evaluating potential sites for new clinics to be built. When the Covid restrictions stopped us, we decided to find new ways to accomplish our mission. Here are three examples. 
At Kateri Clinic, we have been forced to discontinue our annual medical outreach and our mobile clinics at Kateri Clinic due to violence, robbery and kidnapping activities in the area, but thankfully, we have found a partner.
We are very grateful for two grants from SAMS (Society of Anglican Missionaries and Senders) based in Abridge, Pennsylvania. This year, they gave two generous grants.
