To mark our 25th anniversary, we ran a stand at the May market in Altst\u00e4tten. We were able to welcome many market guests and tell them how well our Medical Centre in Kenya has developed within a short space of time. The recently opened maternity ward attracted particular interest. We would like to buy an incubator so that we can hopefully save premature babies soon.<\/p>\n

ngg_shortcode_0_placeholderThe May market raised 2780 francs in donations. Mea Bl\u00f6chlinger alone contributed 1080 Swiss francs.. As part of a school project, the secondary school pupil filled a suitcase with goods she had made herself and sold them at our stand.<\/p>\n

Mea generously handed over the proceeds to our treasurer Eveline Alder. We would like to thank you for your great interest and every contribution. The fundraising campaign for the incubator continues. The target is 5000 Swiss francs. You are welcome to participate here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
