Where We Show Up With DripDrop and Save Lives
When IV therapy isn't an option, dehydration can be life-threatening. At the edge of a wildfire, in a remote village, after a hurricane destroys local medical facilities—that's where we show up with DripDrop and save lives.
2015/ Dr. Dolhun led a team of volunteers to Nepal, using DripDrop to treat adults and children suffering from severe dehydration after a devastating earthquake.

2015
Nepal
A magnitude 7.8 earthquake struck Nepal, killing nearly 9,000 people and leaving communities devastated. Severely limited access to clean drinking water combined with diseases such as dengue fever and malaria exposed the people of Nepal to widespread dehydration.
Dr. Dolhun led a team of volunteers to Kathmandu and surrounding areas. Traveling community by community, they identified adults and children suffering from severe dehydration and treated them with DripDrop — a solution that can be administered in almost any conditions.
