Express Freights Management (EFM) has reaffirmed its commitment to community development through a generous donation of sanitary pads, bath soaps, and cleaning detergents to the Metoreia Health Centre (MHC) in Port Moresby city, as part of its community initiative program.
EFM’s Safety Manager, Mr. Chauka Molen, handed over the supplies on behalf of the company’s management and Mr. Nathan Brooks. Mr. Molen stated that the donation is a way for EFM to give back to the community and support essential health services.
Receiving the donation on behalf of the clinic, Metoreia Health Extension Officer (HEO), Ms. Regina Wuri, expressed her gratitude to Mr. Nathan Brooks and the EFM team.
She highlighted that the health facility, now six months into operations, has encountered various challenges and that such support would greatly assist in maintaining basic healthcare services.
“The Metoreia Health Centre operates a 24-hour birthing facility, with nearly 200 babies delivered by our skilled midwives. Items like sanitary pads, soap, and cleaning supplies are crucial in ensuring a clean and safe environment for both staff and patients,” said HEO Wuri.
Dr. Robin Oge, CEO of the NCD Provincial Health Authority, also extended his appreciation to the management of EFM on behalf of the Board and Management.
He emphasized that such timely donations play an important role in supporting the Authority’s mission of delivering effective health services across the National Capital District.
