Yet, there are much more wounds to heal. We need hope not only one day, but every day. **KEEP GOODNESS GOING** Although access to healthcare is a fundamental human right, many regions around the world lack adequate healthcare infrastructure and qualified healthcare professionals. As of 2023, approximately 4.6 billion people worldwide lacked full access to essential health services, while 239 million people needed humanitarian assistance and protection. As disasters, economic inequalities, and conflicts exacerbate weaknesses in healthcare infrastructure, vulnerable communities face increasing barriers to accessing essential health services. This situation contributes to higher maternal and infant mortality rates, particularly in low- and middle-income countries, makes disease outbreaks more difficult to control, and increases risks to public health. Supporting healthcare services goes beyond treating diseases. Ensuring the continued availability of qualified healthcare professionals, medicines, medical supplies, and essential equipment is vital to delivering uninterrupted and consistent healthcare to those in need. **WHAT ARE WE DOING?** At Yeryüzü Doktorları, we work in regions where access to healthcare is limited, helping people in need access essential health services. We reach vulnerable communities through the permanent healthcare centres we have established in the countries where we operate, as well as through mobile health services and volunteer medical teams. We help meet healthcare needs by providing medical consultations, treatment, surgical procedures, medicines, and medical supplies. Through our work in primary healthcare, maternal and child health, nutrition, and various medical specialties, we reach people in need. We also help strengthen local healthcare systems by providing hospitals with training, medical equipment, and medicines. **WHAT CAN YOU DO?** You, too, can help sustain healthcare services through regular monthly donations and support access to quality healthcare for people in need. ### WHAT IS THE REGULAR DONATION SYSTEM? A regular donation is an automatic monthly contribution made via our website, where a specified amount is charged to your credit card based on your authorization. You can set up your regular donations only through our website using your credit card. ### WHY SHOULD I MAKE A REGULAR DONATION? With your support, we continue to carry out humanitarian healthcare activities in many areas, including eye health, maternal and child health, nutrition support, primary healthcare services, access to clean water, psychosocial support, and the provision of medicines and medical supplies. In the event of earthquakes, floods, wildfires, and other natural disasters, as well as in times of war and other crises, we deploy our volunteer medical teams to affected regions and provide essential healthcare services while also working to meet basic humanitarian needs. By making a regular donation, you can support the continuity and sustainability of the healthcare services we provide in regions in need. ### CAN I START MY REGULAR DONATION ON A DATE OF MY CHOICE? The regular donation starts on the day you make your donation. From that date onwards, the specified amount is automatically charged to your credit card on the same day each month. For example, if you set up a regular donation on January 1st, your first donation will be collected on the same day, and the next payment will be charged on February 1st. ### CAN I CHOOSE HOW MANY MONTHS MY DONATION WILL BE RECURRING? Yes, you can decide how many months you would like your regular donation to continue. You can set your recurring donation period for a minimum of 2 months and a maximum of 18 months. ### IS THERE A MINIMUM DONATION AMOUNT TO BECOME A REGULAR DONOR? No, there is no minimum amount required for regular donations. You may choose any amount you wish to contribute. ### WHICH CARDS CAN I USE FOR REGULAR DONATIONS? You can set up a regular donation only with a credit card. Debit cards cannot be used for recurring donations. On the payment date, your credit card must have sufficient available limit to cover the donation amount, and your card must be enabled for online transactions. To activate online payments, you may contact your bank. Your card details are never accessed or stored by us under any circumstances. ### CAN I CANCEL MY REGULAR DONATION AT ANY TIME?
