The mission
of MAHAFA (Formerly known as AfricareMeds) is to provide medical care and medications to
the indigents of the Ibo tribe in Nigeria who cannot afford to
help themselves.
Accomplishments
Over the past six
(6) years, MAHAFA (Formerly known as AfricareMeds) members have traveled to Nigeria six
times. We have provided medical care to over three thousand five
hundred (3,500) indigents of Ibo tribe in Nigeria providing
treatment for Hypertension, Diabetes, Malaria, Typhoid,
Insomnia, Arthritic and chronic pain, and Educational teaching
on prevention of many tropical diseases.
A borehole that provides clean drinking water for the indigents
of the Ibo Tribe was paid for in part by your donations and
contributions to MAHAFA (Formerly known as AfricareMeds).
Goals
-
Progressively
increase the frequency of visits to Nigeria from yearly to every
six-months and finally every quarter.
- Build and
Maintain FREE medical clinics in most of the villages, ensuring
year-round medical care for the indigents.
- Provide a clean
water supply. The dirty and untreated water supply in Nigeria is
the primary source of illnesses such as typhoid.
- Provide
immunizations to the children. Lack of early immunization is the
cause of early childhood death.
- Lead a team of
doctors and professionals in the fields of internal medicine,
family practice, and ophthalmology to aid the people of Nigeria.
- To build
additional boreholes that provides sources for clean and healthy
drinking water for various towns and tribes. The first water
borehole was constructed and completed in December 2007.

- To be the
non-profit organization of choice for donors, knowing that 100% of
funds raised is spent on the people that need it the most - not on
overhead expenses.
