The mailing says the Southern Africa Medical Aid Project (SAMAP), a local group of medical practitioners and anti-apartheid activists, is urgently appealing for funds to purchase essential medicines for the ANC-Holland Solidarity Hospital in Mazimbu, Tanzania. In May 1987, the project sent the African National Congress (ANC) 32 boxes of medicines and surgical supplies donated by the medical and pharmaceutical community in North Carolina. Transportation and packaging were provided by The Africa Fund, along with contributions from individual donors. The hospital in Mazimbu was built in 1978 with funds donated by the Dutch Government and land provided by the Government of Tanzania. The ANC must fund the hospital directly. In August 1987, Dr. Nkadimeng at the ANC Hospital expressed appreciation for what was received in May from the SAMAP, but medicines are still needed. The mailing includes a newspaper article "Refugees Get Medical Aid From Triangle."
