Hamlin Events

Speaking Tour 2024

This August, our chairwoman, Joli and Fundraising Manager, Jayne, will be traveling North to share the inspiring stories and critical impact of our work.

If youโ€™ve read Catherineโ€™s books, โ€˜The Hospital by the Riverโ€™ or โ€˜Healing Lives,โ€™ you'll know the captivating nature of our story. Joli, fresh from a four-week stay in Ethiopia will also have plenty of updates to share.

A longtime supporter, or hearing about us for the first time - these events are for you. We'd love to meet with our Friends of Hamlin to hear why you choose to support us and your ideas. We also invite you to bring your family and friends to hear the plight of Ethiopian women and learn how Hamlin Fistula NZ is making a difference. As the saying goes, "Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much."

Mark your calendars and please join us at one of these must-attend public events. We look forward to seeing you there!
