Our Shipments So Far
Since sending our first humanitarian container to the Horn of Africa, the Foundation — working
closely with the Rotary Club of Footscray and Donations in Kind (DIK) — has coordinated 21
containers of essential medical equipment and mobility aids to hospitals across the region,
including 12 containers to Ethiopia (7 to the Somali Regional State, 2 to the Harar Regional
State, 1 to the Tigray Regional State, 1 to Dire Dawa City Administration and 1 to Dubti
Referral Hospital in the Afar Regional State), 4 containers to
Somaliland, 2 to Somalia, and one each to Djibouti, Kenya and Sudan.
These shipments have carried hospital beds, dialysis machines, surgical instruments, wheelchairs
and other mobility aids donated by Australian hospitals and healthcare partners — extending the
life of quality equipment while making a profound difference in the communities that receive it.
Governance
The Foundation was officially registered as a company under the Corporations Act 2001 on
20 November 2025, with the support of Delphi Accounting. It operates under a board of directors
and is committed to transparency, accountability, good governance and responsible stewardship of
donated resources — ensuring every item is assessed, responsibly managed, and delivered to
verified healthcare facilities according to identified need.
Public Benefit
The Foundation’s work provides direct public benefit by assisting disadvantaged families,
children, people with disabilities, and patients who face significant barriers to accessing
appropriate healthcare. Its activities are exclusively charitable, conducted in partnership with
local stakeholders and international partners to ensure programs are culturally appropriate,
needs-driven, and aligned with broader humanitarian and development objectives.
