Project Details

African Sky purchases basic first aid and health care supplies for distribution in African Sky host communities. In 2008 David and Mary Harlow of Munroe Falls, Ohio organized a "pharmacy supply drive" with the help of the First Christian Church in Stow, Ohio. The Harlow's collected bandages, scissors, aspirin, vitamins, and much more. African Sky purchased additional health care supplies and transported the Harlow's donated materials for distribution in the communities of Dissan (Bougouni region) and Markala (Segou Region), African Sky volunteers organized all supplies into rural pharmacy medical kits containing bandages, thermometer, scissors, aspirin, children's aspirin, children's and senior vitamins (for people with dysentery or malnutrition), anti-septic ointment, and more. The kits do not contain prescription or potentially hazardous medicines. African Sky has adopted this rural pharmacy supplies project as an annual tradition.
