festival de l'aide médicale


Explanation:
Ce n'est pas un salon, mais plutôt un festival ou des équipes médicales volontaires viennent de l'étranger prodiguer des soins gratuits à des populations défavorisées.

"Due to generous donations and volunteer efforts, La Providence Foundation was able to conduct a medical fair in Haiti. The medical fair was held in St. Louis Du-Nord and its vicinities, Guichard and La Riviere des Barres in August of 2008. Nurses and Medical doctors from Canada, United States, and Haiti volunteered their time and talents to help the needy. They provided free health care and medical supplies to about 1,500 Haitians, ranging from infants to the elderly. The medical fair was brought together in collaboration with Association des Medecins Haitiens a l’Etranger (Montreal chapter). "

D'après ce que j'ai vu sur Zafen, les activités de collecte de fonds sont organisées par une communauté d'Haïtiens en Floride.

L'argent finance les "medical fairs" en Haiti.
Un nouveau projet récolte des fonds pour la construction d'un four communautaire.

Asker: Merci - je pense que cela correspond assez bien à mon contexte - mais est-ce que cela permet également de collecter des fonds ?
