Rotary Club Sofia International has started an international joint project with two Austrian clubs – Rotary Club Korneuburg and Rotary Club Klosterneuburg. The project is called MED-Bul and is a donation project for used medical equipment from several Austrian hospitals to Bulgarian hospitals with insufficient or poor equipment. The donated equipment is in good condition and fully efficient. The efforts of the joint project team were successful and the first equipment with value of 30,000 EUR was delivered on 7 August 2019 to the hospital MBAL Shumen. The transportation expenses were donated by the forwarding company Jöbstl Bulgaria who provided the logistic support.  The equipment is a sterilization device which was accepted with thankfulness by the Director of the Shumen hospital D-r Dimitar Kostov and it was handed over by the past secretary of Rotary Club Sofia International Mr. Rumen Rusinov to the Deputy Director of the hospital D-r Nedko Todorov. A joint picture was taken as an evidence on that day.

The donation project has just started and the joint project team from Austria and Bulgaria are coordinating now the next delivery to other Bulgarian hospitals. It is expected the next delivery to take place also within August and in the coming months more trucks with medical equipment of high value to be donated to Bulgarian hospitals.
