We are overwhelmed at the generosity of Sigma to part with so much stock in such a time of desperate need in our country. Whilst this is such a welcome gesture of humanitarian care, we’re still a long way off from our national target of providing health and help to all our citizens
Simon Henry Opio-Emuna
Medaid UK spokesperson and Executive Director
The Sigma staff team, together with volunteers from Shishukunj, Harrow and Mr Kirti Shah, gave up their Saturday morning to support the operation.
One of our operating principles is built on a simple premise, ‘give and it will always come back’. The first-generation family are from East Africa, and naturally, we were delighted to be partnering with this charity. It gladdens our hearts that we can help and alleviate human suffering and illness in Africa with this little contribution from the UK.
