“Jerome Bettis Clothing Project”

are required to attend school and parents
can’t afford to purchase them for their
children. Many children are missing out on
an education because of something as
simple as a school uniform is not available.

FRF has clothed more than 30,000
desperately needy children in Ghana
Project New Hope’ addresses the need for water, building of schools, and the creation of job opportunities.
More than $15 billion worth of medical supplies are discarded each year in the United States. At the same time, less fortunate countries are in desperate need of medical supplies. FRF closes this health care gap by connecting those who have with those who hope. Medical and surgical supplies and equipment (crutches, wheelchairs, scalpels, syringes, gloves, antibiotics, beds, exam tables etc.) are procured and delivered to health care providers in Ghana West Africa.
ACCOMPLISHMENTS TO DATE:
In 2013, Fever Relief Fund made 17 shipments of medical supplies and equipment to 10 Government hospitals in Ghana W. Africa. These donated articles are of immeasurable assistance to FRF health care programs overseas, often making the difference between remaining open or closing.
The goal is to raise, on a yearly basis, $346,000 for the shipping program. FRF volunteers gather, sort, repair, catalogue, pack and ship items ranging from needles, syringes, bandages, incubators, computers, ultra sound, and etc.as donations to hospitals in the region.
