Treating obstetric fistula.
Restoring health and hope.

It's more than a hospital.

It's a community of healing and hope.

More than just a hospital, it's a place of healing and hope.

More than just a hospital, it's a place of healing and hope.

Uganda has one of the world's highest rates of obstetric fistula.

“We are proud to be offering this specialized care for our women close to home and by doctors and social workers from within the Ugandan community.”

Surgery is the first step. 
True healing requires so much more.

Terrewode Women's Fund started out as a capital campaign for a hospital dedicated to giving more women access to high-quality, holistic fistula care, including:

 

  • Expert surgical treatment, physical therapy, counseling, and  reintegration support services.

  • Education about safe motherhood and contraception.

  • Skills training for economic self-empowerment.

Ultimately, our vision is a future where women have unfettered access to the highest quality of preventive maternal health care.
