Has your state joined the fight to end fistula?

One By One: America is a public engagement program that welcomes the whole country to join in the discussion about fistula, its causes and means of treatment and prevention. One By One invites people from each of the 50 United States to take action on behalf of women with fistula – and help us to spark a nationwide movement.

One by one, state by state, we can help end this devastating condition. Take action today to raise $420 in your state - enough to provide life-changing surgery to a woman with fistula. Help us put your state on the map!

If you live in one of the states yet to get involved (blank states on the map, left), or know someone who does, we invite you to join the challenge today.

To get started, you can:

Make a donation

Host a giving circle and invite friends and family from around the country to join.

Send an e-card introducing loved ones to the fistula issue. If you'd prefer to send printed cards, let us know.

Wherever you live, we encourage you to spread the word about One By One: America. All the materials you need are right here. Feel free to download the whole packet or just the pieces you need.
