Paul Farmer was a very special person who made it his mission in life to bring health care to those in need. He did it with the dignity of every patient he treated being the most important thing. @PIH continues his work, and his mission. Worthy of support.

We're excited to share that our first shipment of Hemafuse devices arrived in Ukraine. Below is a video we received from a Ukrainian doctor thanking us for the donation. Hemafuse will be taken directly to Kyiv to be used to save the lives of those in need of a blood transfusion.
