Caring Report 2025—Health Care and Mobility

Child Nutrition Program: Riobamba, Ecuador

As disciples of Jesus Christ, we follow His example by caring for the sick, comforting the weary, and enabling others to do the same. Whether individuals struggle with walking again after surgery or receiving a life-changing diagnosis, our acts of care open the door to greater opportunity and hope.

2025 Priorities

Mobilizing Care around the World

In 2025, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints supported 770 health and mobility projects to help individuals regain strength, independence, and hope.

For example, the Church and Engage Now Africa brought clean water to a hospital in Ghana that focuses on maternal and newborn care and donated vital medical equipment to clinics in Ghana. In Mexico, Church funds to FUCAM, A.C., a Mexican cancer institution, trained breast cancer specialists and supported biopsies, surgeries, consultations, and mammograms for over 16,000 people.

Other notable projects in 2025:

Medical Equipment Donations

In the Philippines, medical equipment donations are helping hospitals and clinics meet growing demands and serve vulnerable populations. In Caloocan, a public hospital received a much-needed X-ray machine, which a radiology department now uses to perform thousands of scans monthly. In Santa Rosa, the Church provided essential medical tools, including portable ultrasounds, Doppler devices, and infant-weighing scales to strengthen local health services.

In Moldova, Project HOPE and the Church worked together to donate a modern gastroscope to the Floresti District Health Center—eliminating the need for patients to make expensive trips to other cities for advanced gastrointestinal testing.

Masae Finds Faith in Every Step

In Samoa, a mobile clinic brings renewed hope and restored independence to amputees who would otherwise have little access to care. After four years of waiting and praying, Masae took her first steps with a new prosthetic leg. “I want to walk again so I can serve,” she shared.

Her renewed mobility allowed her to return to serving those in her community, a goal she had throughout her healing process.
