Provide electricity to Managha Dispensary

Donation of a solar panel

The solar panel at the Managha dispensary in Arri failed. This was an urgent situation as dispensaries provide all the vaccinations and the vast majority of vaccines require refrigeration.

The other dispensaries in the ward all still have working solar panels or are connected to a town electrical service. In addition to vaccine refrigeration, electricity also enables use of the recently provided hemoglobin meters for testing anemia during pregnancy, lighting to provide services after hours, an autoclave for sanitation, a wall mounted heater in the labor and post-natal areas, etc.

Benefits:

• Ability to store vaccines and provide vaccinations

• Ability to test for anemia during pregnancy

• Ability to provide after hours emergency service
