Project Overview
In many rural areas of the Rif, access to healthcare is limited or entirely absent. Villages can be hours away from the nearest clinic, and for those without reliable transportation, even basic medical care is out of reach. The Rif Development Foundation seeks to bridge this gap by creating mobile medical points, well-equipped medical units that can travel to remote communities, bringing doctors, nurses, and essential medicines directly to those who need them most.
Project Goal & Location
To raise funds for 4 fully equipped mobile medical points that will provide free or low-cost healthcare to underserved villages in the Rif. The mobile medical points will be operating in the Gzenaya, Al Hoceima and Nador regions
Services Provided
- Basic health check-ups and consultations
- Distribution of essential medicines
- Vaccinations for children and adults
- Maternal and prenatal care
- Health education and prevention workshops
- Emergency first aid services
Why It Matters
Preventable illnesses often become life-threatening in remote Rif communities simply because medical help is too far away. By bringing healthcare directly to the villages, we can:
- Reduce untreated illnesses and complications
- Lower child and maternal mortality rates
- Promote preventative healthcare habits
- Build trust between healthcare providers and rural communities
How You Can Help
- Donate: Every €25/$27 helps fund one patient’s full treatment and medication.
- Sponsor Equipment: Contribute toward medical kits, portable diagnostic devices, and cold-storage for vaccines.
- Corporate Support: Partner with us to fund a full mobile medical point or a specific healthcare program.
Timeline
- Fundraising: Through the whole year
- Implementation: Vehicles purchased, equipped, and staffed within 3 months of funding completion
- First Visits: Begin community rounds within 4 months of funding completion
Long-Term Impact
This initiative will operate year-round, rotating between rural communities on a fixed schedule. Over time, it will significantly improve public health in the Rif, reduce preventable deaths, and encourage healthier living for thousands of residents.
