NIA-CHARLESTOWN NEVIS (November 02, 2011) — The Alexandra Hospital was at the receiving end of another donation on Tuesday November 01, 2011, when the Development Projects Foundation Incorporated handed over a 40 foot container of medical supplies, equipment and furniture to Minister of Health on Nevis Hon. Hensley Daniel with an estimated value of US$106,117.30.

The container was donated to the Alexandra Hospital by United States of America based non-profit organisation Global Links of Pittsburg, Pennsylvania. Shipping and handling charges were paid for by a group of Ex-patriots headed by Dr. Wyne Bossola.

In handing over the container, the Foundation’s Director Mrs. Mythlyn Parry thanked Global Links for their gesture and noted that last year August a similar presentation was made to the Alexandra Hospital on behalf of that same organisation valued at US$76,212.68.
