ERADICATE GUINEA WORM!

Imagine if this was your child. When seven year-old Kouadio ingested the guinea worm larvae he didn’t realise this nasty parasite began growing inside him. He began to feel burning pain and started to hobble. 

Soon, he couldn’t walk as he developed a gaping wound - a dangling parasite was clearly visible from his foot. Kouadio endured five long weeks of excruciating pain as the guinea worm was slowly extracted from his badly blistered foot by slowly winding it round a stick. 

There is no other cure for Guinea worm but it can be prevented. Guinea worm has afflicted the poor for centuries but it is on the verge of being eradicated. Please join TEAR Fund in making guinea worm history. 

Please give generously to stop West African children suffering intense pain or being crippled by metre-long parasitic guinea worms that grow inside their bodies.Clean safe water and your support is all that is needed to eradicate guinea worm from Côte d’Ivoire and for work to begin in Ghana.
