What happens when you invest in one African physician?

The impact can reach far beyond the patients that doctor treats.

In our recent article, meet Dr. Godbless Philipo, a Tanzanian doctor pursuing advanced training in the United States with a vision of returning home to help strengthen pediatric and neonatal care in Tanzania.

His story is a powerful example of how investing in African physicians can create lasting change—through clinical care, mentorship, research, stronger hospital systems, and the development of future healthcare leaders.

One doctor. Thousands of children. And the potential to influence pediatric care for generations.

August 15 was International NICU Nurses Day, we celebrate the nurses who stand beside some of the smallest and most vulnerable patients—and the families who love them.

NICU nurses bring together clinical skill, patience, vigilance, compassion, and teamwork. They monitor tiny changes, support families through uncertainty, and provide essential care around the clock.

At ICHA, we see the difference these nurses make every day.
Through our work at the Arusha Lutheran Medical Centre (ALMC) NICU and through Tiny Feet Big Steps, ICHA works alongside African nurses to strengthen neonatal skills, share practical approaches, and build confidence in caring for newborns.

These nurses are not simply receiving training. They are leading care, sharing their experience, mentoring colleagues, and helping strengthen neonatal care within their own hospitals and communities.

Every stronger NICU means more babies have a chance.
Every nurse who gains knowledge and confidence can carry that knowledge to the next newborn, the next family, and the next generation of healthcare professionals.

We celebrate NICU nurses in Tanzania and across Africa—and nurses everywhere who dedicate themselves to helping the tiniest patients take their first steps toward a healthy life.

Thank you for the care you provide, the knowledge you share, and the lives you help change. đź’™

A Growing Centre for Children and Families

When donors supported the vision for the Arusha Pediatric and Maternal Care (APMC) Centre, they were helping create more than a clinic—they were helping build a place where children and families in Arusha can increasingly find the specialized care they need, closer to home.

And that vision is growing.

Since opening, APMC has continued to expand its services. Today, families can access pediatric consultations, newborn and infant follow-up, immunizations, acute care, laboratory services, and more. The Centre is also expanding access to specialized services, including:

🧡 Laboratory services now available to the public
🧡 Dermatology services every Saturday
🧡 Family counseling and therapy services
🧡 Saturday clinic hours, making care more accessible to families who cannot come during the workweek
🧡 Growing opportunities for specialized pediatric and maternal care

These additions are important because a growing clinic means more families can receive care without having to travel elsewhere for every specialized need.

This is what donor support makes possible.

Every contribution to APMC helps strengthen the people, equipment, facilities, and services needed for the Centre to grow into a sustainable resource for children and families in Arusha.

The story of APMC is still being written—and thanks to those who have believed in this vision, the story is one of growth, expanding services, and increasing access to quality care.

Thank you to everyone who has helped make APMC possible. Your generosity isn't simply supporting a building. It is helping create a growing centre of care for the Arusha community.
