At the Katondwe Mission Hospital, every day brings new challenges. Our reality is full of very tough moments, when we feel powerless, intertwined with the times that give us great satisfaction from the help we have provided. It is a great joy and a commitment for the future. We want to provide our patients with constant care of the highest possible standard and to constantly improve the conditions in the Hospital. Usually, the reality of life in Africa, in Zambia, is very different from the standards and convenience we know. Nevertheless, we make sure to end each day with a sense of a job well done and gratitude for all the good that has occurred. Of course, it would not be possible without the support of our Donors, for which we are very grateful.

All this hard, but very satisfying and, above all, extremely necessary work is performed by the hospital staff in Katondwe.

We are very happy because we've managed to buy a new water tank with a capacity of 5,000 liters. The old one served us for many years, but - unfortunately - it started to leak and we cannot afford to lose water under any circumstances.
Without water, our facility would not be able to function and provide appropriate hygienic conditions for the medical staff and our patients.
