Friday, August 28, we met with two of the top Health professionals in Nepal, the directors of the Department of Health Services (Epidemiology and Disease Control Division) and Teku Hospital (“the cholera hospital”). We just dropped in, and they received us… Praise the Lord! Both were very busy, very accommodating and understood quickly the value of the CPU and the Safe Water Drops chlorine product. Dr. Babu Ram Marasini, director Department of Health Services, Epidemiology & Infectious Disease Control Division for this country is well known in Nepal and around the globe and invited us to join their Health Symposium on cholera outbreak(s). That happens Sunday 30Aug. He says to expect thousands in attendance! The SWIM booth will be side by with displays for Cholera vaccinations and the W.A.S.H. program. Perfect.
Dr. Kedar Prasad Ceintury, Director of the Sukraraj Tropical & Infectious Disease Hospital paused to meet us in the middle of their Board Meeting, set up a followup meeting to discuss how they might collaborate with SWIM in this Cholera battle. Wow. Big day of Holy Spirit‐powered contacts and progress. Shyam and I are fatigued & smiling broadly.
Attached is an example Project Plans that we’ve been developing to continue to accelerate the distribution of SWIM chlorine during the Nepal monsoon season. Please pray for our energetic brothers and sisters in this exciting effort. -Rich Grant, SWIM board member
