Time and again, we receive offers for various utensils and materials from clinic or practice liquidations. We are unable to use many of these items as they are either not compatible with the conditions on site or shipping or transportation is too expensive. Now we have been lucky and have received a lot of usable materials for operating theaters in the St. Walburg`s Hospital received. We agreed with the hospital which of the materials would actually be useful. There was still room for it in the container of a friendly organization and so the surgical colleagues in Tanzania are now enjoying urgently needed new surgical equipment.
