Vesico-Vagina Fistula Patient Support, Countrywide

_thumbnail_VVF-Extra-Photos-3-c_.jpg We have been working with women who have Vesico-Vagina Fistula (VVF) since 2002, teaching them trades, and paying a small monetary allowance for their sustenance. Family project Eduvision has helped to renovate and set up vocational centers where VVF patients are able to learn a trade and obtain basic literacy classes. Eduvision's VVF patient support project also helps these women get on their feet after the training, by supplying those who graduate from the course with a small stipend and tools to set up their own small businesses.
