Without an ambulance, thousands of people die before they can reach our Community Hospital, opened in 2010. The hospital provides desperately needed medical attention for surrounding villages, but is often a walk of several hours, or even days!
We have a pledge to match the first $7,500 towards our goal of $27,500 to buy an ambulance.
