Africa-Press – Liberia. <\/strong><\/span>The Executive Director of Youth Action International Dr. Kimmie Weeks, has turned over a consignment of medical supplies to three health facilities in Monrovia. The donations were made last week at the organization’s head office on Duport Road and were received by officials from the Benson Hospital, the Duport Road Health Center and the Alfred F. Medical Clinic.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the official turning over ceremony, Dr. Weeks noted that the donations were being made as part of the organizations ongoing efforts to support the Liberian government\u2019s pro-poor agenda for improvement of health care delivery in Liberia.<\/p>\n

He explained that during the Covid-19 outbreak, Youth Action International had initiated a program to provide medical and non-medical supplies to various hospitals and health care centers and that this donation was part of the ongoing efforts.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe recognize the sacrifices that health care workers make every day. We have chosen these three health centers to be amongst our first beneficiaries because they are institutions working to serve some of the most financially disadvantaged people,\u201d said Dr. Weeks. He went on to acknowledge the support of several organizations and individuals who had been instrumental in providing and airlifting the drugs to Liberia, especially the US based organization Make It Rain, which had helped to arrange the medications. He also thanked the Burt Family Foundation, the Wolff Companies and S. Young for the supporting role they had played.<\/p>\n

Each of the companies who received the medication thanked Youth Action International for its kind gesture and stated that they were both thankful and overwhelmed by the generosity of the donation.<\/p>\n

Youth Action International is an organization established by Kimmie Weeks in 2006 to provide education, healthcare and economic empowerment for children and young people in post-war African countries. Since its establishment, the organization’s work has benefited over 200,000 people in Burundi, Liberia, Rwanda, Sierra Leone, and Uganda.<\/p>\n
