ABOUT US

We want to expand our God given abilities, potential, our unique passion, and desire to fulfill HIS purpose.

Mission: To reach those who are struggling to get basic medical care due to lack of access to healthcare and poverty by using volunteers from Minnesota and around the world.

Goal:
To expand on the free blood pressure clinic in Minnesota and travel to different rural areas of Ethiopia annually to provide medical care to low-income communities.

Future plans:
It is our hope that in the future, AgapeMED will provide more medical help to the less fortunate people of Ethiopia; provide medical help in a consistent manner by building clinics and hospitals in the rural areas of Ethiopia. In the next year or two we would like to establish well-equipped clinic locally around Minneapolis and St. Paul, that adds services areas like:

Foot Care, Counseling, Referral, Advocating, Home Visits, Wound Care, Planting more blood pressure clinics in public housing buildings.

The Facts:
Ethiopia is a country with 85% of its population living in rural areas that do not have access to health care facilities and/or doctors. Because of that they only rely on traditional medicine. From 70% to 80% of the diseases affecting its population are easily preventable by simple interventions. Communicable diseases, malnutrition, and lack of access to clean water are responsible for 57 % of the total death rate. There are only about 2000 physicians for a population of 90 Million people.

The Solution:
Organizing medical teams and travel to remote areas in Ethiopia once a year to provide medical support, teaching, allocating resource, giving moral and spiritual support.
