DSAA – Dominica SiFoCol Alumni Association on Donation of Dialysis Machines to the Marigot Hospital

The Dialysis Committee of The Dominica SiFoCol (Sixth Form College) Alumni Association, DSAA, whose campaign is supported by the Dominica Hospital Authority, are kindly requesting your assistance with obtaining much needed dialysis equipment and supplies for Dominicans with kidney disease. The Dialysis Committee of the Dominica SiFoCol Alumni Association (DSAA) moved into action after witnessing firsthand, the challenges faced by a former classmate, colleague, and friend as he traversed the long distance from a rural area into Roseau, several times a week for life saving treatment. Sadly he succumbed to kidney disease about 9 months ago. DSAA is raising funds in his honor to further support efforts in Dominica to bring dialysis treatment and care to the rural parts of the island.
The goal this year is to raise USD$110,000 towards the purchase, ancillary supplies, shipment, and training costs for 2 dialysis machines. To date, less than two months since starting the campaign, we have raised USD$22,612.65, a bit over 20% of our stated goal. This will advance treatment capability, and will impact educational and prevention campaigns related to the importance of kidney health. Your Donation will bring essential Dialysis Care to Patients in Rural areas! Thank you for your assistance! *Dominical SifoCol Alumni Association (DSAA) is a registered charitable organization.
