2011 Representatives Visit Poland

Representing the PACCF, Alina Slomiany visited Towarzystwo Pomocy Gluchoniewidomym, an institute our organization has been supporting for several years. During her meeting with the institute's director Mr. Grzegorz Kozlowski, Alina presented a donation of $5,000.00. The donation will help the institute to continue their multiple activities, which enrich the lives of blind and deaf people. The institute depends on the work of volunteers with whom Alina was able to meet and discuss plans for the future.

During her visit to Poland, Alina Slomiany also met with Artur Kolosinski of Diagnos Sp, a manufacturing firm specializing in medical equipment. The main focus of this meeting was the purchase of an ambulatory respirator for Szpital Specialistyczmy in Sanok located in the Bieszczadzki Region. The hospital covers a wide area and their ambulance up to now did not have a respirator. The PACCF covered the full cost of the much needed respirator.
