IRS990/Desc0CHIKWAWA HOSPITAL. The maternity wing and operating theatre at Chikwawa Hospital received a 10,000 ltr back-up water system. Nearly 5,000 babies are born at this hospital each year and yet the entire hospital averages approximately 6 hours/day without water. We installed the back-up water system, manufactured a new steel tank-stank, supplied new plumbing/pipes to ensure that nearly 10,000 moms and babies can experience childbirth with access to clean water.
