More PPE for healthcare workers arrived in Madagascar in two sea containers full of medical equipment and supplies, which have been distributed to a number of hospitals in Toliara and Antananarivo.  Thanks to Hanitra and Lucile, our efficient Madagascar staff, for their hard work in clearing and delivering the equipment.

The hospitals gratefully received hospital beds, wheelchairs, crutches, mattresses, surgical linen, scrubs and uniforms, gloves, masks, theatre supplies and much more.

“I’m happy to inform you, that materials are arrived yesterday for our hospital. A big thanks for your efforts. Thank you ADFA.”, Prof Riel, CEO, CHU Tanambao (Toliara General Hospital).
