We are so delighted and thankful to announce that the first supply of medicines has arrived at Moma Hospital.Thanks to the generosity of so many people who answered our call in January for funds, we were able to send $4,000 worth of essential medicines to Moma.

The medicines were purchased in Kananga, the capital of the Kasai Province, and loaded into a Jeep for the 300-mile journey to Moma. The roads were knee-deep with mud in many places and  blocked by trees that had to be cleared. The pictures below show some of the challenges of traveling in the Congo.
