As part of the three year partnership with GE to help the poor and needy of Ghana, Assist's Executive Director Tim Reynolds led a team to six rural hospital sites.

All six sites now have steady power, purified water and essential medical equipment. These rural villages are now able to alleviate diarrhea and other water born diseases among children and adults. Life-saving medical equipment is also close at hand, equipment that has changed an intensive care facility from a room of death into a room of life.
