Project Congo is a US based charity, working to send food, medical equipment, supplies and medications to eastern Democratic Republic of Congo. We routinely ship and carry over critical life saving supplies to our partner facilities serving the refugee population and victims of crisis. Over the past five years we have shipped tons of new and surplus medical supplies and brought relief thousands of people.
Our partner facilities provide care to rape victims, nutritional support to malnurished children, maternal/fetal care, pediatric care, and general medical and surgical care.
In addition to health care, we also implement educational programs, sanitation and infrastructure projects and economic development for women and children.
