Lana Jefferson Taussig - Monday, June 29, 2009

PROJECT C.U.R.E. is excited to announce the arrival of a container, filled with medical supplies and equipment, at Timbuktu Regional Hospital in Timbuktu, Mali.

Timbuktu Regional Hospital provides services and care to people in the Timbuktu region, where the estimated population is 80,000. The supplies and equipment will greatly benefit the medical staff, comprised of seven doctors, two surgeons, eight nurses and three assistant nurses who have not seen renovations or medical equipment replacements since the hospital’s inception in 1992.
