The hospital ship, supervised by Rotary Egypt is highly equipped with clinics, labs and a pharmacy focusing on the governorates in Upper and Lower Egypt who have limited access to health care services.
This first of its kind project gained huge support from both the private and public sectors in the country by landing a collaboration with the Ministry of Health, the Tahya Masr Fund, Masr El-Kheir Foundation, El-Tayebi Pharmacies, Banque de Caire, and Pharco Pharmaceutical Company.
Lucratively, on March 7th, the hospital ship will begin sailing to Aswan’s neighboring governorate, Luxor, where it will stop at the port for a week to treat patients.
