Germany based Dominica Charity Foundation gifts Marigot Community with a 40 ft container of supplies

​A Germany based Dominica Charity Foundation has gifted the Marigot Community with a 40-foot container of supplies. That Charity Foundation has been reliably assisting and supporting Marigot for over ten years.
 
The NGO was founded in 2006 by Mary Sylvester, and has been regularly sending medical items to Dominica every year. The Marigot hospital has been the focus of support, with computers, wheelchairs and other necessary resources provided by the charity. The Dominica Charity Foundation also directs its effort at providing basic items, for example supplying school children and their families with necessities such as beds, clothing, shoes, sheets, pillows, mattresses, cooking facilities, school materials like books, pencils, rucksacks, and more.
 
The charity also helps the sick and needy, especially the elderly, with wheelchairs, diapers, bandages, and home paraphernalia. This year, after hurricane Maria, the charity was able to not only send a 20-foot-container to the Dominica Infirmary in Roseau, but also a 40-foot-container to the village of Marigot. The German NGO also donated wheelchairs and walkers to the Douglas Charles Airport. A large number of other crucial items like household utensils and equipment, machinery, and tools were provided for the people of Dominica, including the Marigot hospital.
 
The NGO has more than doubled its efforts after witnessing the destructive effects of hurricane Maria. Seeing the majority of houses in the Marigot area without roofs has prompted big efforts to provide much-needed aid. Some of the NGO’s helpers came from Germany to Dominica to participate in the distribution of the items, to observe first-hand the charity’s work, and to witness that the goods are going to the people who are most in need.
