Over five hundred villagers
and school children greeted the PUMA team members with flowers, hand
clapping, and shouts of welcome at the opening of this full time medical facility at Bhaiadawa in Teri area.
For three years the building lay empty and abandoned by a Japanese NGO who
left due to lack of funding
and political unrest. The offer was made to PUMA by the village leaders to reopen this Japanese built hospital facility rent-free! Our
responsibility is to staff
and completely stock the clinic and provide salaries which
we have already completed.
This small hospital will service an area of 40,000 poor
villagers who have no other medical services available to them.
Thanks again to those who helped fund this great blessing for the village of Bhaiadawa.
