The world’s poorest people needlessly suffer because they lack basic medical supplies.
Millions in the world’s poorest and most vulnerable populations endure illness without access to basic medical supplies. Even common treatable illnesses often become debilitating or even fatal.
IMA WORLD HEALTH (IMA) is providing relief to millions with the IMA Medicine Box®. Each Medicine Box® includes basic medicines and supplies to treat approximately 1,000 people for two months. It contains pain relievers (such as aspirin and acetaminophen), antibiotics, ointments, and first-aid items such as sterile gauze and bandages.
Each year, the IMA Medicine Box® is sent to rural clinics, hospitals, and health care workers in dozens of countries. To date, over 11 million people in 52 countries have been treated through the Medicine Box®. Monica Dyer of the Haiti Response Coalition said, “They were the best box of materials we’ve received yet.”
