Organization information
UCZ Mwandi Mission Hospital American Partners
Location: Blowing Rock, United States of America
Summary
The Mwandi Hospital, a designated COVID center in Western Province Zambia, requires reliable, low-cost electrical power in order to provide quality patient care. Costs charged by the national hydroelectric power company (ZESCO) are increasing exponentially. Our project's long-term goal is to remove the hospital from the ZESCO power grid by installing a sustainable solar power system. The hospital will apply its cost-savings directly to patient care and its health-care services will be expanded.
