SLMDA Gives Back: Donations and Health Screenings for Vulnerable Communities

In keeping with our commitment to community service and social responsibility, a cross-section of the executive members recently conducted a series of charitable activities aimed at supporting some of the most vulnerable members of our society.

1.⁠ ⁠Supporting Children and Families at Variety Children and Family Services, Kingtom
On our first stop, we visited the Variety Children and Family Services in Kingtom, where we made donations of essential food items to the children and presented monetary tokens to the dedicated staff who work tirelessly to care for them. The administration of the facility has extended their profound gratitude to all SLMDA members for bringing joy to the children and making a meaningful impact on their lives.

2.⁠ ⁠Extending a Helping Hand to the Elderly at King George VI Memorial Home
We also had the privilege of visiting the King George VI Memorial Home, where we donated food items to the residents and provided monetary tokens to each individual. In addition to the donations, our team conducted health screenings for both the residents and staff. These screenings included:
•⁠ ⁠Weight measurementBlood pressure (BP) check
•⁠ ⁠Pulse rate (PR) assessment
•⁠ ⁠Random blood sugar (RBS) testing
•⁠ ⁠Temperature checks
The residents and staff expressed their heartfelt appreciation and sent their prayers for blessings upon all those who contributed to this noble initiative.

These acts of service would not have been possible without the support and generosity of our members. We extend our deepest appreciation to every member of the SLMDA who contributed in any way to making this initiative a success. Your commitment to both medical excellence and humanitarian service continues to uplift lives across Sierra Leone.

Together, we are making a difference! Thank you all for making this happen.
