Donations for Healthcare

Supporting Health and Hope Across Papua New Guinea

Overview

The Donations for Healthcare initiative by the Nadesalingam Foundation for Education (NFFE) supports under-resourced healthcare services in Papua New Guinea. By providing medical supplies, equipment, and support, it aims to strengthen clinics, improve care quality, and address critical health needs, particularly in remote and rural communities.

Why This Project Matters

The Donations for Healthcare initiative by NFFE supports under-resourced health centers in Papua New Guinea, particularly in remote areas. By providing essential supplies and equipment, it helps frontline workers deliver better care, reduce school absences, and protect communities from preventable illnesses.

What We Donate

NFFE provides medical equipment, supplies, infrastructure, and health education materials to clinics and hospitals in Papua New Guinea, focusing on high-impact, low-cost resources. Donations are guided by direct communication with local health officials to ensure they meet verified needs and improve service delivery in under-resourced communities. Ask ChatGPT

Where We Work

NFFE supports health facilities across several provinces, prioritizing regions with minimal access to provincial hospitals. These include:

  • Health outposts in Bougainville, Gulf, and Central Provinces
  • Settlement clinics in Port Moresby
  • Community-run maternal health centers
  • Schools conducting on-site health programs

Impact in Action

Our donations have helped:

  • Increase prenatal support in rural clinics by providing basic maternity kits
  • Enable nurses to monitor vitals and diagnose early symptoms using donated equipment
  • Assist in COVID-19 prevention campaigns by supplying masks, sanitizer, and awareness posters
  • Support school-based vaccination drives with first-aid and health station setup

Special Outreach Projects

In addition to direct donations, NFFE also supports:

  • Health awareness sessions in partnership with schools and local leaders
  • Disaster response contributions (e.g., during flooding or outbreaks)
  • Fundraising for disability and rehabilitation services, in collaboration with other national efforts like the Governor General’s campaign for the Cheshire Homes

These projects allow us to respond flexibly and compassionately to urgent needs as they arise.

How You Can Help

Final Thoughts

Our vision is to grow the Donations for Healthcare program into a coordinated outreach effort, expanding support to more clinics, mobile health initiatives, and digital health education.
