Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page. Instead of a wedding gift, we would kindly ask for a donation to one of our amazing charities. The one I, Fabio, have chosen is Emergency...
The Ebola epidemic forces us to reflect. 2 patients out of 3 have died in Africa. One yes, two no. One survives and two die.
In Europe and the USA on the other hand, a total of 25 patients have been treated. 5 died and 20 survived. A 66% mortality rate in Africa, 20% in the rich countries. Why such a difference? Or, in less impersonal terms: why does the same illness leave room for hope, or condemn to death? The answer's simple: the difference lies in the "treatment". First and second class citizens: those with a right to treatment, and those without.
Please donate what you can to this extraordinary cause, every penny you donate really does make a difference.
