Rotary World Health Network

Rotarian Doctor Steven Chang just returned to Prince George from his most recent trip to Sierra Leone, and came home to a pleasant surprise.

Before leaving Prince George, Steven had passed around a number of letters to members in the Medical Community in Prince George, asking for donations for assistance to help ship the current container of Medical Equipment, School Books and other supplies collected in Prince George and surrounding northern communities, to Africa.  These materials have only recently been shipped to the RWHN Warehouse in Vancouver awaiting placement into a container for overseas transport.

Steven found that people in the north had donated over $4200.00 to assist with the transport of the container.  The Rotary Club of Mackenzie has also assisted with a cheque for $500.00.

A total of approximately $6000.00 is required for shipment of the container, plus a further $2000.00 to cover port fees on arrival into Africa.

Doctor Chang also presented the Nechako Rotary Club with a Banner he received while on his trip.

Thank you Steven.
