It is my privilege to share with you the historic signing of an MOU between USAID and APPNA.
Under the terms of this MOU, USAID will provide logistics support at their centers in Pakistan, for APPNA physicians, to provide health care when visiting Pakistan. APPNA will also coordinate training and continuing education of their medical and paramedical staff through its MERIT Program, besides consultations to their physicians through the already established Telemedicine Program. This is the first step for APPNA supporting better health care for masses in Pakistan, besides the support we all provide regularly to our Alumni and associated hospitals.
The process was initiated when I had the privilege to meet Mr. John Groarke, Mission Director, USAID Pakistan, during his visit to USA in March. We were able to discuss the value that APPNA can bring to USAID in its activities in Pakistan and ......
The mission was set up at the request of a school for indigent children and young adults who do not have access to the Guatemalan medical care and services as they are Nicaraguans settled in Guatemala. Out of the total 450 kids, this school was attended by 150 kids that live near the city dump and ate from the dump. The ground arrangement were made with the help of local Rotarians.
