In a world where too many people suffer and struggle you can be a part of innovative projects bringing healing and hope.Â
Angels Healing Our World
Mustard Seed Global, a registered Australian charity, is at the forefront of transforming healthcare in remote communities of Papua New Guinea. Through the deployment of innovative ‘hybrid’ paramedical units, they tirelessly deliver essential primary and emergency health care, as well as early cancer diagnosis, to those who would otherwise be left without a fighting chance for good health or survival.
Need in Remote Places
According to a Lancet report on declining health services in PNG 50% of the medical aid posts serving rural areas at independence in 1995 closed by 2006. Now only a small percentage operate effectively.
We’re Mobile
Many in PNG travel for up to 4 days for medical services. Fear stops many from going to be tested for HIV-AIDS or cancer. Our rugged 4x4 vehicles and agile boats bring free essential services and early diagnosis screening to their doorsteps.
Enabling Other Services
By helping to fill the gap in early cancer diagnosis people can present earlier to services treating the disease and have a better chance of survival.
