We are so very grateful for all our supporters! Our “Night for Nigeria” was a raging success. There were aobut 50 people at the event and all reported enjoying the food and entertainment. We raised over $4000 that night. Many people who were unable to attend sent donations to help get the new generator we need to be able to open the water plant.

We were surprised with several large donations after the event. We received a grant for Trinity Episcopal Church Outreach Commission for $2400 and a grant from the Radical Waves Project for $1000! That project has a giving circle of high school students and one of the students selected us for that award. We have no idea who that student was but are gobsmacked at the generosity of this group. Another $2000 came from good friends who have a heart for our mission.

With the fabulous support we were able to send $10,000 to Nigeria to purchase the new generator. The generator should be on its way in the next few days. Our final inspection by the NAFDAC in Nigeria will then be scheduled and we will be able to start producing water to sell!

We will also have enough money to start looking for a used ultrasound machine for the clinic. We are hopinq to have the remainder of the money needed by the time we travel to Lagos in April. An ultrasound machine will bring more business to the clinic and help to show the locals that we are truly a well equipped clinic that they can trust to deliver high quality medical care. Our next step for the clinic will be to improve our lab capabilities so we won’t have to send certain tests out to other labs.

None of this could have happened without the support of YOU our faithful donors! May the blessings you have given us return to you tenfold!
