We are helping unprecedented numbers of people this year. For the past several years, we have helped an average of 500 per day. This year is different. Due to an amazing increase in the number of Nigerian doctors and nurses, and an amazing tell of servant hearted volunteers from Kaduna diocese, we have been helping many more than in previous years . First day:775; second day 860; by noon on third day 500.
In the photos you can get some idea of the enormity of the crowds gathered at the gate each morning. It is a very challenging job to maintain order and keep people on lines to insure fairness to everyone And it's important to remember that behind every one of those numbers is a person. A sick child bad his worried mother. A family in distress. People who have no resources seeking medical care they can't afford. Above are some faces of children. Look into their eyes. This is why we are here to help hurting people and so demonstrate the love of God.
