Africa Tech Talks EP #35 (S02): Saving Lives with Technology: Nikita Kuzmin Mission to Transform Global Charity
Saving Lives for $300
- Nikita Kuzmin sees saving a life for $300 as a vital mission to bridge the gap between those in need and those who can help.
- Many poor patients lack internet access, so direct medical outreach is crucial for finding real needs and helping effectively.
How $300 Can Save a Life Anywhere in the World
Helpster Charity proves that a mere $300 can save lives in some of the poorest regions globally. Nikita Kuzmin emphasizes, "No one should be dying because they don't have $300 in this world," advocating for a model where donors directly fund treatments in trusted hospitals, never handing money to patients to prevent fraud.
The charity operates with full transparency and startup efficiency, verifying cases thoroughly using video calls and local volunteers, and focuses on maximizing lives saved per dollar, treating over 1,000 cases across several countries.
Supporters can donate directly on their website or help spread awareness, contributing to a mission aiming to save one million lives by prioritizing urgent, affordable medical interventions.
