Thanks to GlobalGiving Family.
PPSO-E conducted 2017 PD Walk on April 9/2017 in the presence of 242 participants. Out of these, 51 were PD patients. Our aim was to create more awareness on PD and also generate more funds for patients to buy PD drugs. The walk was conducted as planned and thanks to our generous givers through Global Giving who donated the fund.
The walk was broadcast through various TV/Radio media & print media. We achieved our target. A total of 45 donors from United States participated in the donations for drug purchase and one of the donors (Tsega Orcutt) came to Ethiopia in person to participate in the 2017 PD Walk. We heartily appreciate our donors.
The project delivered finance (1066.67 USD) to PD patients for drug purchase. This was so because one of the aims of the Walk was to generate finance for PD patients. We also gave 680 USD on the Walk day as allowance to PD patients which they will be using to cover transportation & medication expenses.
We are proud of GG team & their support.
We express our heart felt gratitude to GG staff and eager to continue working with You.
