A big thank you from Nepal 

 

A huge shout out to the Rotary E-Club of Sydney. Without your Club’s support and David Dean as the District 9685 Rotary Foundation Committee Chair 2021-22, this life saving project would not have come to fruition.

 

The Rotary Club of Northlakes Toukley joined forces with the Rotary Club of Rudramati Kathmandu Nepal to lodge a Global Grant application to purchase medical equipment which will relieve the distress on hospitals due to the ravages of COVID-19. The impact of the COVID-19 Delta strain saw the lack of oxygen needed by hospitals to treat highly infected patients.

 

The focus of the grant is to purchase oxygen concentrators and medical equipment for hospitals in the Kageshwori Municipality in Kathmandu, Nepal.

 

We are excited to announce that Rotary International chose our application and four other applications worldwide to be the first applications to be processed under their new management system.

 

Cases in Nepal rose to over 3,000 new cases in a 24-hour period, so you can image the excitement the Rotary Club of Rudramati to be empowered to order the equipment.

 

This grant would not have been possible without The Rotary Foundation World Fund, District 9685,  and the following Rotary Clubs:  

* Rotary Club of Northlakes Toukley,  

* Rotary Club of Rudramati Kathmandu, 

* Rotary Club of Gosford, 

* Rotary Club of Gosford City,

* Rotary Club of East Gosford, 

* Rotary E-Club of Greater Sydney,

* Rotary Club of Epping,

* Rotary Club of Nepean.     

* Rotary Club of Macquarie Park, 

* Rotary Club of Chatswood Roseville,

* Rotary Club of Hills Kellyville,

* Rotary Club of Norwest Sunrise,

                               An Oxygen Concentrator similar to those supplied
