Through 2023, we partnered with BYAW to fund life changing surgeries for 11 young children in the community of Ouelessebougou and the surrounding regions. These surgeries were done in partnership with Dr Bagayoko at the Clinic de Paix in Ouelessebougou. Many families in Mali can barely afford medicines and basic health care let alone a surgery. Most children will live with their physical deformities due to inability to afford surgeries. With BYAW and Clinique Paix, Empower Mali was able to provide necessary surgeries that can bless the lives of these children and their families.
