EMERGENCY provides free, high-quality healthcare to victims of war, poverty and landmines, alongside building hospitals and training local medical staff.
Founded in 1994, the charity has treated over 12 million people in 20 different countries and currently operates in West Asia, Eritrea, the Middle East, Italy, Moldova, Sierra Leone and East Africa, including Uganda.
The charity is founded on the belief that healthcare is a human right and therefore everyone should have access to high-quality treatment. This is why the medical care they provide is always free-of-charge and of equivalent standard to what would be expected in a high-income country.
EMERGENCY does not discriminate, and guarantees treatment to anyone that needs it.
