Nigeria
On Thursday, March 31th, a container carrying over 11,000 lbs of medical supplies and equipment destined for Nigeria was shipped out of MedShare’s Southeastern Regional Distribution Center in Decatur, Georgia. The project was sponsored and coordinated by one of MedShare’s longest-standing local partners, the Nigerian Women’s Association of Georgia (NWAG).
The donated items are to be split between three different under-resourced medical centers around the country. Included on the container are:
- ambu bags
- adhesive bandages
- syringes
- stretchers
- surgical packs
- stethoscopes
- wheelchairs
- thermometers
Below are photos below of the NWAG “sending-off” the container from the MedShare Warehouse… enjoy!
