1. WATCH: Drones deliver lifesaving supplies across Ghana

In Ghana, distance is too often a barrier to health care. Americares partners are using drones to rapidly deliver urgently needed medicine donated by Americares to remote regions. Watch Mrs. Donkor tell the emotional story of how a drone delivered medicine for her sick baby within thirty minutes, saving her family a trip to the hospital.  Americares has been providing assistance to Ghana since 1991, delivering over $100 million in medicine and medical supplies to support people in need.
