| CHW in Zambia weighing baby |
The news was emailed to Zambia that the HealthEd Connect board enthusiastically endorsed the addition of a multi-purpose health worker room to the school site plan. A flurry of emails shot back from Africa with the speed of cyberspace. To say the least, the idea was enthusiastically endorsed by the health workers in Zambia who have volunteered their services for over 20 years. It is envisioned that the new multi-purpose room will provide a space where health classes can be held for community mothers, babies can be weighed and monitored, teams can meet to organize for weekly home-based care, income generating activities such as paper-bead making and sewing can be pursued, supplies for the school lunches can be organized, and various school activities held. A small addition to the health worker facility will be added to store the new Zambikes and carts which are being rented to provide funds to support the schools. Now we need the help of our friends to raise the funds to make this dream come true.
