Construction Begins!
After years of planning and months of preparation, the time has finally come. GPIH has officially broken ground on our medical center in Togo! Within just a few months, we will be able to provide medical care to THOUSANDS of people in the Zio District of the country.
The Planning
Since selecting the Zio District, which is 60km from the capital, GPIH has sent over several teams to create a strong relationship based on trust with the leaders in the region. By sending medical students to provide basic medical care and collect base data for the community, GPIH was excited to build a system of medical centers that will be critical for the health of the Togolese within the community.
Our in-country staff, the MacLeans moved from Mali to Togo to help with the planning of the medical center. They also helped establish the medical committee which would oversee all the construction plans for the medical center as well as the guest house which will house visiting doctors.
The Preparation
The Medical Center
In just a few short months, the center and the guest house will be finished! This medical center will then provide medical care to thousands in the region! Within just a few months, GPIH will provide hope to Togo!
