Alaskans all over the state & people globally 3. Who were the beneficiaries, how were they impacted by this project, and what humanitarian need was met? Community members all over Alaska wherever Alaska Health Fair Inc. does the Health Fairs. Message from Alaska Health Fair Inc.: We did get a lot of very needed items. We have intentions of purchasing more tables when they are actually available. Apparently, there is more demand for the type of table we want. Last I talked to the Manufacture in Washington, they said about 6 months or more wait. We needed new blood pressure cuffs, stethoscopes etc. so that is where I focused. Our bp cuffs were mostly purchased pre-2010. We retired many and donated them to the folks that send functional medical equipment to 3rd world country doctors. So, you also helped people in other poor countries. Not sure where they went but the group, we donated to is very reputable. 4. How many Rotarians participated in the project? 8 5. What did they do?
