Now that you know what we have been doing with your donations, let me tell you what we still need. Many things are on our wish list but here are the top priorities:
1. We constantly need cash to make this clinic a viable project. The current budget for 2009 is around US$130,000. We can send you the budget so you can see how urgent we need those contributions.
2. We are in the process of finding funds to expand our location and build two more rooms. One for a mini surgery room and one for medical examination. This second room also will give some privacy for gynaecologic exams and other procedures.
3. We are planning to create an outreach program where we will get an ambulance that will go to the most remote areas in Nicaragua. We are in the process f procuring this ambulance from recent contributions however we’ve learned that the Nicaraguan government will not permit the import of a vehicle older than 6 years, which is it more expensive: THe current budget of a new vehicle to be adapted into an ambulance is $32,000.
4. The Outreach program is called Medicina A Distancia (Outreach Medicine Program). We will go to different areas with a doctor and a nurse and provide medical consultation and a mobile pharmacy at a very low cost. This program requires approximately $4,000 per month to run. It is a much-needed service but requires cash to start it.
5. We need US$4,000 to pay for the shipping of a 20-ft foot container filled with equipment and some repository materials, which a recent retired Doctor is giving to us…
6. Ultra Sound equipment. GE Vivid i Portable Ultrasound Machine Vivid i product Features. GE Healthcare's new Vivid is the world's first miniaturized cardiovascular ultrasound system to provide high-performance, full-featured imaging in a lightweight design
