Medications for Lebanon November 2020 current There is a catastrophic shortage of medications in Lebanon. ALMA has been very active in seeking community donations to purchase medications to donate to various hospitals, medical centers as well as individuals and families from relations in Australia. We have assisted with sending over 20 tonnes of medications worth over $1.5 million to individual families or targeted hospitals/medical centers throughout Lebanon over the last 14 months and we are continuing to do so. Any individual can ask ALMA to assist in sending medications to families or friends. The medications are purchased at wholesale price, sent by plane, are cleared by the Lebanese Army and then transported to their destination. Specifics of the multiple recipients are available. More than ever Lebanon is now in desperate need of medications which are in short supply and with government subsidies no longer to be provided. Oxygen Concentrators Feb 2021 July 2021 ALMA managed to acquire oxygen concentrators to send to Lebanon. They are Philips oxygen concentrators costing $1300 delivered by airplane to Lebanon to their destination. A community appeal has been launched and to date we have sent over 30 concentrators. Baby Milk Formula for Lebanon Appeal June July 2022 ALMA was involved in a baby milk formula appeal for Lebanon. There remains a major shortage of baby formula milk and ALMA remains keen to support and promote further donations. ALMA has also donated 14 ultrasound machines to hospitals and medical centers across Lebanon.
