Healing with Heart in Malawi

Sinkhani health workers receive training in first aid so they can respond to situations like this one.

In Mzimba, Malawi, 7-year-old Flora Chipeta suffered severe burns after falling into boiling water. With the hospital out of medication, a HealthEd Connect Sinkhani volunteer stepped in, bringing hope and healing.

Using traditional knowledge, she taught Flora’s family how to treat the burns with guava leaves to prevent infection. After five days, antibiotic ointment was applied and Flora made a full recovery! Her parents are deeply grateful for the care and compassion shown by the community health worker.

Your support of nonprofits like HealthEd Connect makes stories like Flora’s possible. Together, we bring healing and hope to communities around the world.
