Mission
Founded in 2000, The Fistula Foundation is dedicated to the treatment and prevention of obstetric fistula, the most devastating aftermath of obstructed labor, through support of the programs of the Hamlin Fistula Hospitals in Ethiopia. Our first priority is to achieve financial sustainability for the Hamlin Fistula Hospitals as they expand their treatment and prevention programs to help a growing number of current and potential fistula patients. As such, we are committed to raising awareness of obstetric fistula. The Hamlin Fistula Hospitals provide free fistula repair surgery to approximately 1,200 women every year and care for 35 long-term patients, train doctors from around the world, and have initiated an expansion project to build five mini-hospitals throughout Ethiopia.
