“What AfriMed Network has accomplished over its first three years is impressive, achieving so much with nothing more than their personal commitment and out-of-pocket funds. I am pleased to support and help grow this innovative, hands-on approach to improving access to healthcare for those truly in need in Cote d’Ivoire”, emphasized McGowan.

Mr. McGowan will play a direct role in the long-term planning and development process for the construction of future AfriMed Network-operated community medical centers in Cote d’Ivoire. He has been involved in projects in 35 of the 50 United States and in 36 countries including Haiti, Poland, China, Libya, Morocco, Botswana, and Nigeria.
