Our impact

A solar panel. A trained midwife. A lab that works all day.

Small, specific improvements change what a rural clinic can do. Here is where your support goes — and what it has already made possible.

Care that reaches mothers and children first

Across the eight facilities we support, more than 230,000 people live within the catchment areas we serve — and over 239,000 patient visits were recorded in 2025, including 2,600+ safe deliveries.

Engera supplies medicines, diagnostic tools and delivery equipment, and coordinates visiting medical teams several times a year alongside the Ethiopian staff and religious sisters who run each facility.

Voices

From the staff and communities we work with

Before the solar system was installed, we often had to stop working for half the day because the electricity would go out. Now, with solar energy, we can work properly at any hour of the day or night.

My name is Rachel, and I'm a clinical nurse at Burat Health Center. The Attat training made a real difference for me — especially the neonatal resuscitation skills.

Engera partnering with Adey Pads has made a big difference for our school girls. Now they have proper pads, and more than a thousand girls can attend school confidently and without interruption.

I work in the ANC, delivery, and vaccination services. Our main challenge has been the power shortage — even basic things like light were not available. Even yesterday night, a mother came to give birth and the power went off. I had to use her own torchlight to help deliver the baby. Thankfully, the baby was strong and healthy, but without electricity we cannot do our work properly, especially when it comes to mothers and children. Now, with this solar project, all of these problems will be solved.
