Powering Breath: Affordable Ventilators for Africa

Hi. My name is Hank DeBey. My team and I are in Africa, and we have developed an amazing new medical device to treat the most lethal diseases in Africa, lung diseases. Lung diseases kill more than three times as many people as malaria. An essential tool for treating lung diseases is the ventilator, but in Africa, ventilators are virtually non-existent. In Africa, there is less than one ventilator for every 100,000 people, while in the USA, there are 35 ventilators for every 100,000. The primary reason ventilators are rarely found in Africa is they are very expensive, ranging from $20,000 to $55,000. Another factor contributing to the scarcity of ventilators in Africa is the fact that they require a procedure called intubation and people sufficiently trained to carry out intubations are about as scarce as the ventilators themselves. We have developed a ventilator that is perfect for use in Africa. We call it the Afri-Genie ventilator, and it offers a truly life-saving solution for millions of people across Africa each year. Our Afri-Genie ventilator is incredibly low-cost at less than $3,000 and it doesn't require intubations to be performed, yet it achieves the basic specifications of conventional ventilators. Those two factors mean that it can be deployed not only in big city hospitals but it can even be used by minimally-trained community health workers in small rural clinics. A key design principle of our Afri-Genie ventilator is the use of locally available materials common across Africa, such as plumbing pipes and automotive repair parts. This eliminates complex, expensive supply chains and simplifies manufacturing and ongoing product support. We urgently need your help to carry out clinical trials of our new ventilator and to start deploying it as widely as possible. Here is How Your Contributions Will Be Used: - Upgrade to fair salaries for our dedicated volunteer team - Upgrade our production capabilities - Conduct 24-hour stress testing of multiple ventilators to prove durability and reliability - Install solar panels to ensure uninterrupted power for testing, despite daily power outages - Relocate to a larger facility that can support expanded operations - Cover clinical trial expenses, including regulatory approvals, supplies, and logistics Of course, these aspirations hinge upon the help you can give us and the actual level of these activities will be scaled according to the donations received Please click the donate button now.

Life here is full of challenges and difficulties, but I still fight every day to survive, not only against the harsh conditions, but also against a merciless disease. I suffer from chronic heart disease and malignant liver cancer that threatens my life. Doctors told me that I am in an advanced stage of the disease, and that if I cannot get treatment in time, it will be too late. In Gaza, where wars devour our lives and medical resources are scarce, getting treatment has become very difficult. I have tried to withstand these conditions, but the situation has become more difficult day after day. The pain does not leave me, and it has become difficult for me to continue my daily life with my family. I suffer from constant fatigue, loss of appetite, and significant weight loss, and every day that passes I feel that I am further away from my dreams and the dreams of my family. Today, I am writing to you from a heart full of hope, hoping to find Who can help me in this ordeal? I have decided to open my heart and ask for your help in this difficult time. I need the treatment that could save my life, give me another chance to live, and I ask you to stand with me in this fight, every donation, no matter how small, will make a huge impact in my life. Donations will help me get the necessary and expensive treatment that I cannot afford on my own. With you, I can fight and dream of a recovery that will restore my life and open up new opportunities for me to live with my family. I only ask for another chance in life, a chance to survive for my loved ones, a chance to raise my family's head after wars and disease have destroyed it. Please, do not leave me in this darkness, and be a light in our path. Help me complete this journey. Thank you to everyone who contributed, whether by donating or by sharing the campaign.

Support for Ismails family

I’m Kaci, and I’m making this fundraiser on the behalf of Ismail, Here is his story: My name is Ismail, and I am a journalist from Gaza. I have dedicated my life to documenting events and conveying the truth to the world. However, the war did not just destroy buildings and infrastructure; it also took away my journalistic tools, which I relied on for my work. This has left me in a difficult position where I can no longer practice my profession or raise my voice to the world. Despite everything I have been through, I hold on to hope and seek ways to rebuild my professional life. My ambition is to secure the tools necessary to return to journalism, to be a voice for those who have none amidst the challenging circumstances we face. I am reaching out for support from media organizations, humanitarian institutions, and anyone who values the role of journalism in conveying the truth. Together, we can rebuild what the war has destroyed and continue to share the stories that need to be told. Objective: To rebuild my journalistic tools and receive support to resume my career as a journalist, so I can continue to be a source of truth and storytelling from Gaza to the world.

Help Us End the Suffering of Homeless Pets in Leb

Together, we can end the Suffering of Homeless Animals in Lebanon! Lebanon’s streets are overflowing with abandoned and suffering animals. Shelters are full, and every day, more cats and dogs are left to struggle—abused, starving, shot, poisoned, hit by cars, or worse. The government provides no real support for animal welfare, and the cycle of suffering continues. It’s time for real change. We are launching a long-overdue spay and neuter campaign to tackle this crisis at its root. By working with ethical municipalities, VET hospitals and dedicated individuals, we will reduce the stray population humanely, prevent future suffering, and give these animals a fighting chance. Each dog we help costs $150, covering spaying/neutering, microchipping, and a rabies vaccine—not just to protect the animal, but also the people around them from this deadly virus. With your support, we can make a lasting impact, one life at a time (TNR for cats will hopefully follow). This is a permanent initiative, and we need your help to keep it going. Every donation goes directly to funding life-saving surgeries, medical care, and outreach efforts. Be part of the solution—donate today and help us create a safer, kinder future for Lebanon’s animals. P.S: you can sponsor or co-sponsor with a friend, as many dogs as you'd like! Every small donation will make a big impact. Thank you for your support!!!

At one point, that shrapnel caused temporary paralysis in his lower limbs. He went into a coma several times and the shrapnel in his chest caused air to enter his left lung. I narrowly escaped death several times.My husband and I live in a tent. I created this campaign first to bring basic resources and necessities of life such as food, drink and medicine.

Stephanie's Cat house

I am a daughter of two migrant workers who spent almost 40 years of their lives i n Lebanon trying to make ends meet. I grew up developing this compassion towards animals as my mother spend most of her days rescuing cats and feeding stray ones. Unfortunately, my mother passed away two years ago due a tragic car accident while crossing the street. Ever since, I have been struggling to follow her path because of many other responsibilities. The loss of my mother crippled our family in so many ways. I found myself becoming the main breadwinner of the family with my brother and father being unemployed because of the country's structural economic problems. Every month, I struggle to feed 52 strays and take care of the 23 cats at home. Let alone think of ways to get them spayed and neutered is a big burden. I Know that out there, there are people who would understand this struggle and be able to support with anything to help me carry out my mission. My greatest vision is to build a cat house someday away from the city and to host strays.
