Aitutaki Hospital

$1,935 of $80,000 goal
Given by 22 generous donors in 8 weeks

Whilst Aitutaki is paradise on earth, its hospital needs new equipment and hospital beds to help those who can't enjoy paradise like we can.

International

In 2017 I visited the Cook Islands to distribute my book "Your Guide to Exercise after a Stroke".

I met with the Cook Islands Secretary of Health, Elizabeth Iro, and visited Aitutaki Hospital.

I was very impressed by the hardworking humble staff working in challenging conditions and decided to do something about getting better and more equipment for them and the hospital.

Atlas Freight International have very generously provided a "one off" free container and free shipping for any equipment I can secure. Already Medical Aid Abroad, medical supply companies and commercial gyms have donated many goods but we still need more to fill the container.

We're looking to raise funds to purchase 10 new hospital beds and medical equipment to fill the container before it leaves so any donations will be very gratefully accepted.

Use of funds

To purchase ten new hospital beds and medical and rehabilitation equipment to upgrade Aitutaki's Hospital.
