10 million people is approximately 2 x the population of Ireland.
Injury kills nearly twice as many people each year as HIV, Malaria and TB COMBINED!
Despite this burden, the funding for care of the injured represents less than 1% of total Development Assistance for Health.
Help Us Prepare for When the Worst Happens
By teaching front-line health workers how to deliver emergency medical care with only basic equipment, we relieve the suffering of those affected by war, violence, natural disaster and healthcare poverty. This life-saving training is completely free, funded entirely by donations.
