VOLUNTEER

The high demand for care of chronically ill patients cannot be dealt with by the government health service alone even in the most optimal health care system. This calls for efficient community, home-based care where terminally ill patients, and their families, are provided with the necessary support they need.

Hospice Ethiopia (HE) is a non-profit organization that provides comprehensive palliative and hospice care and support to cancer and/or HIV and AIDS patients, largely in the capital city of Addis Ababa. Recently, we are expanding to other suburbs in Ethiopia.

We are happy to share with you the 2022 Annual Report for Hospice Ethiopia. We are very appreciative of your support and interest in helping grow Hospice Services in Ethiopia.…

“It is humbling to know of the superb work done by Hospice Ethiopia with limited resources. All power to them and to the support from PBL. We really don't know we're born in this country even when our services are being so hard pressed, Hospice Ethiopia are inspirational by displaying their personal, altruistic care to fellow human beings and we should all strive to follow that example.”

Tim Wayne

“I profoundly admire this glimpse of the work of Hospice Ethiopia. I am especially pleased and grateful that Hospice Ethiopia has the support of staff at Priscilla Bacon Lodge in the UK, who have won the admiration of countless patients and families over the years, and I trust that Hospice Ethiopia will find a similarly special place in the hearts of all those for whom it cares. Every good wish for your wonderful, priceless work.”

“ It was on my first trip to Ethiopia that I had the opportunity to visit Hospice Ethiopia. . I watched the caring staff working hard to meet both the physical and emotional needs of many patients. I left with so much admiration for the team and so overwhelmed wit the mission. I knew I had to get involved to support in whatever small way I could.
