Fundraise for Hamlin
Have Fun. Raise Money. End Fistula.
Our supporters are not only generous, but incredibly imaginative! They really know how to put the F.U.N in the raising.
But most importantly, every single dollar helps us get one step closer to achieving Dr Catherine Hamlin AC’s vision: a fistula-free Ethiopia. We invite you to become part of our wonderful community of fundraisers.
Here Are Some Ideas to Get You Started

And every donation you collect will support maternal health in Ethiopia.
