“Iotron” Saves Lives

Thank you to all at Iotron Technologies Corp, particularly Jason Cornell, who organized the Iotron fundraising event to save lives from malaria with bed nets and medicine. The women and children in Kawempe will be protected because of all your generosity and kindness. Your gifts of life will go a long way, for a long time.

Pass the Hat

Students of the Nursing Education Program, University of Saskatchewan, passed the hat and raised more than enough to provide bed nets and medicine for a village. “A hat was passed around various classes, and pennies to toonies were given. People do not realize how fast their change can add up,” said Jan Clark and Michelle Brule, Nursing Students at the University. A big thank you to the caring nursing students of the University of Saskatchewan.
