BWH Team Heart Rwanda - In sub-Sahara Africa more than 1,000,000 children have been diagnosed with rheumatic heart disease but remain untreated.  A team of BWH clinicians began a decade-long mission to bring heart surgery to Rwanda through service and education.  Partners In Health has worked with the Rwanda Ministry of Health since 2005 to provide healthcare in a country previously torn by genocide, and with their help we performed 11 life-saving surgeries during our initial visit.  Ultimately, we hope to help Rwanda establish an independent cardiac surgery program through educating local physicians, nurses and healthcare workers, while providing direct care during annual visits.  This is possible with your support.
