Delivering lifesaving colposcopes to Ghana
United Cargo, in collaboration with Quick, a Kuehne + Nagel company, and JDM Operations Management, recently completed a critical humanitarian mission that has the potential to save countless lives in Ghana.
The shipment, consisting of advanced medical equipment including colposcopes, was delivered to the organisation Saving Mothers, where it will be used in the early detection and treatment of cervical cancer. JDM Operations Management generously donated these colposcopes to support Saving Mothers' mission of improving maternal health in under-resourced regions.
The journey of this precious cargo was complex, requiring careful coordination and execution. The shipment began its journey at John F. Kennedy international airport (JFK) in New York, made a brief stop at Washington Dulles international airport (IAD), and then continued to Accra, Ghana (ACC). From there, the equipment was transported into the remote regions of Ghana, where it will be used by medical teams on the front lines of healthcare. (cj)
