Shipping a 40 foot ocean going container to Katima Mulilo, Namibia in South Africa

Our partners in Namibian are Dr. Kombo, an internal medicine/family practice doctor, and a Radiologist named Dr. Fynn.

Dr. Kombo lives in Katima Mulilo, a town in eastern Namibia. He is working with local officials to build the first and only hospital in this region which is home to 100,000 people.

The container for Namibia will be loaded with 18 ICU hospital beds, hospice beds, wheel chairs, x-ray unit, masks, gloves, crutches, walkers, and many other supplies. It will help supply this new hospital with foundational supplies and equipment.

MESA has the privilege of walking alongside these two amazing Physicians as they passionately minister to the health needs of severely underserved Namibians.

We have been collecting and planning for this container for over a year and are doing our final preparations to ship.
