Port d'Aimere, Flores Nusa Tenggara Timur. After more than five days on the road, the Truck of Life, loaded like a real truck, is ready to embark for Waingapu. The last ferry out of five that we have already taken throughout this journey will take us to the foundation's medico-social base camp, Rumah Kambera, in East Sumba. The crossing between Forès and Sumba will take over eight hours in extreme conditions. From tomorrow, we will be working with the poorest families in Indonesia in the framework of the project of primary medical care for children in rural areas and medical care for malaria victims, which is raging here.
The Truck of Life category of Fair Future Foundation documents the deployment of a mobile medical and logistics unit delivering essential healthcare services in ultra-rural Indonesia. The Truck of Life enables primary medical consultations, disease prevention, health education, and the transport of medicines, equipment, and emergency supplies to isolated villages. These stories show how mobile healthcare infrastructure overcomes distance, terrain, and system gaps to ensure timely, effective care where fixed facilities do not exist.
Help us load the medical truck
As part of the project for access to primary medical care for children in rural areas of eastern Indonesia, the foundation needs you to balance its budget. We want to be able to load our medical truck as much as possible in order to reduce logistics costs. They will carry more than a ton of medical equipment, medicines, sterile equipment, and first-aid materials.
We need a 2nd truck
Linked among others to the Deep Well Drilling program (Water Connections), we need to acquire a small second-hand truck, to transport our drilling machine to the sites from our base camp in Sumba East. But also all building materials (sand, cement, bricks, scrap metal etc…). At the moment, we cannot do this ourselves and have to resort to renting a truck. It costs too much and handicaps us a great deal. We are appealing to your big heart, friends. Thanks in advance for your help.
Truck of Life goes everywhere almost no one goes
The truck of Life is so important… It allows us to go where almost no one ever goes. To meet people who have unexpected problems. To provide medical care, to take children or even a doctor or dentist to the nearest town. Truck of Life allows us to bring equipment, food, and drinking water where no one goes while ensuring the safety of our volunteers and specialized collaborators. Indeed, hundreds of thousands of people live in the most inaccessible territories who do not have access to the most basic needs to ensure a healthy life: No access to medical care, drinking water, or a light source for children to read or study.
