Ebola response in the DRC still needs international support

23 September 2026

When disease spreads, families can face hospital costs, lost income, and fear — the kind of hardship Chiugobest’s objects are meant to meet through grants and practical welfare, not by providing clinical treatment ourselves.

United Nations reporting this month described a major Ebola outbreak in the DRC, with response teams scaled up and early signs of progress, alongside a continued call for support.

Please read the original UN briefing for figures and operational detail. We do not repeat casualty numbers here as Chiugobest statistics, and we do not claim Chiugobest staff are running the medical response.

Our role, where trustees approve it, is careful charitable support for people in need — with checks, dignity, and public benefit first.
