Adopt a HeroRAT
Please adopt a HeroRAT!
Every 20 minutes, someone is hurt or killed by a landmine and every second, someone new contracts Tuberculosis. These are daunting numbers, but a local, cheap, and efficient solution exists: HeroRATS! One herorat can clear 100 square meters of a landmine field in 30 minutes equivalent to two days work for a manual deminer. Another can evaluate 40 TB samples in 7 minutes, equal to what a skilled lab technician, will do in two days!
5€ per month is all it takes to adopt a HeroRAT! You can be a part of eradicating the dangers posed by landmines and curbing the spread of Tuberculosis.
