(english version coming soon) An dem von den Pöndorfer Senioren organisierten Vortragsnachmittag wurden erfreulicherweise € 1800,- für den weiteren Ausbau der AfreakMED - Klinik gespendet. Bei einer Jause sowie Kaffee und Kuchen präsentierte der Obmann Dr. Stefan Bayer den derzeitigen Stand der Bauarbeiten verpackt in eine abenteuerliche Afrikareise, die er 2005 selbst unternahm. Im Moment werden Elektro- und Sanitärinstallationen vorgenommen, Fenster und Türen sind in Arbeit. Mit besten Grüßen.

Dear members! We are very happy to inform you that the construction of our small hospital station is now in process. The bricks are modeled on site in forms, are turned upside down and dried in the sun. In addition we are using a mixture of cement and loam, instead of loam alone. This mixture makes a stronger brick compared to traditional made loam bricks which don’t withstand the rainy seasons that well over the years. The development site is cleared, the foundation is poured. Up to now we have been able to form 6000 bricks, the building shell should stand during the next weeks. As already mentioned we are trying to use as many local resources as possible, so that the population can strenghten its esteem and to become part of the project. Furthermore we would like to point out that you can follow our project on our homepage. There you will find pictures and written updates. The pictures lag behind sometimes, because of the slow Internet connection in Tolon. Another very gratifying occasion is the hand over of another € 10.000,- of the Kiwanis - Club Upper Austria. This is going to take place on the 14.May in the music school of Vöcklabruck within the scope of a concert. Sending you sunny greetings, your Afreakmed - Team.

In the past week was Louis Kpangpari, Dr. Steve Kpangpari´s younger brother and close coworker of AfreakMED, in Tolon, the region where our hospital ward is being developed. He was pleased to give us a positive report: * The property was cleared (except trees for shade which was important to us) * The Chief of the region offered our association an appartment in Tolon where helpers and Louis will be able to live. This appartment is equipped with sanitary facilities and kitchen. *Louis Kpangpari will locally manage and oversee the building of the hospital ward, to help us keep an overview. * It was agreed with the Chief that as many local resources should be used as possible, skilled manual workers of the local population and also the necessary materials. In that case bricks are e.g. poured locally in forms and hardened in the sun. This helps us save costs. Just a short request: We urgently need a functioning laptop for Louis, for the documentation at the building site. Ideally would also be a digital camera and used unblocked SIM mobile phones. If one of you should have such devices, wich aren’t needed anymore, we would be very thankful to receive them.

The time has come! We are beginning with the build up of "module1" of our hospital ward in Ghana (see construction plan in our picture gallery). Module1 means that we already have the building plans for a small "hospital", which could be developed very soon depending on the financial situation. At the moment, Module1 consists of 2 surgeries, 1 small laboratory, 1 inhouse-chemist, 1 administration room, 1 waiting room, 1 storage room as well as the necessary sanitary facilities. In addition we would like to have 2 smaller sickrooms for more complicated cases. Further a small waste incineration plant is needed because of bad functioning garbage disposal systems in Africa. All the above-mentioned points should be feasible with our present budget (about € 30.000,-). We are a bit behind schedule because of unexpected difficulties with our 1st architect, who supplied us with a complete different building plan than agreed. This Faux Pas caused however no costs. Well, things are done a little different in Africa compared to us. Financially we can look back on a very successful last year. Beside the numerous donors were also great sponsors such as "Kiwanis Club", the "Zaglinger Pfeiffenclubbühne", the "Frankenmarkter Bäuerinnen", which greatly improved our budget. A cordial “THANK YOU” to all, which have contributed so far to make our project work!
