Financial Services on Wednesday donated three sets of spilt air conditions
value at D54,000 to the Serekunda General Hospital laboratory in Kanifing.
Officials
of the microfinance institution said the donation was part of their activities
of giving back to the community in contribution to the economic growth and
development of The Gambia.
Njungu
Fatty, chief executive officer of Supersonicz, said supporting the health
sector is part of the noble cause that the institution identified for itself.
It
was in this vein that they adopted Serekunda General Hospital laboratory
following series of consultations with the hospital management, Mr Fatty
explained.
He

alone, “their must be some partnerships within the private sector”.
Fatty
affirmed that Supersonicz is a Gambian enterprise and it has the responsibility
to give back to the society.
CEO
of Serekunda General Hospital Saidu Beyai commended Supersonicz for the
gesture, saying the donation has come to the right place and at the right time.
“Air
condition was something lacking in the laboratory but thanks to Supersonicz
that is now history; we want to thank for them,” he said.
CEO
Beyai assured Supersonicz officials that henceforth, the laboratory will be
called Supersonics Laboratory.
Head
of the laboratory Baboucarr Babou urged Supersonicz to continue the partnership
and with the hospital.
