I wanted to share feedback we received from Babcock University in Nigeria. We are working with them to ship several containers during 2011.
Babcock University is a private Christian co-educational Nigerian University located between Igadan & Lagos.
Isaac Osuntade from Babcock University provided wonderful pictures from a recent container unloading.
You can see the students unloading 1 of 2 containers we shipped.
These are just a few of the medical equipment & supplies to be used in the new medical school
Thanks to our donors and volunteers were are able to connect those who have with those who hope.
This is wonderful work! I wanted to raise awareness about hospital needs in Egypt as well. I graduated from Ain Shams University in Egypt and worked briefly in "Al Demerdash Hospital" which is a university hospital that is part of Ain Shams medical complex. The hospital has some serious shortages in crucial supplies and I would love to have organizations such as Medical Bridges in Houston help send some of the surplus medical supplies to the hospital. The shortages are primarily in blood pressure monitors, ventilators for nursing/babies, and most intensive care equipments. I know because I worked there briefly before coming to the U.S., and it's tragic the number of people who are under-served and hurt by these shortages...this is a a call for help from an Egyptian doctor and I hope and pray to God that wonderful people like you can make a real difference in the lives of these poor/under-served population that is served by Demerdash Hospital. The hospital is located in the Abbasiya District of Cairo...I can help connect you to people there if there is interest in helping...thank you so much!
