The Cholera prevention Campaign

Update 2010-12-09

Late November 2010, all of Association Amis des Enfants La Gonave operations were halted. A few cases of cholera appeared in La Gonave and it was paramount to shield the island from the spreading of the disease. According to our sources, no authority took any relevant action in the island, so A.A.E. asked us for some fund to purchase basic anti-cholera equipment and hired some transportation to travel throughout the island to instruct the population on how to stop cholera from spreading. The photos show that the members of the community are all now wearing shoes, something rarely seen before, as TransmarinePro and Sailors Without Border well know. Last April, they brought shoes for the population and we thank them for it, as now shoes are a precious item against the spreading of cholera. Association Amis des Enfants Australia Inc.
