The special requests are for medicines such as: antibiotics, vitamins, antiparasites, oftamologic medicines, antidiarretics, blood pressure medicine, bandages, gloves, syringes and disinfectants.

The Fairfield County Department of Health has already donated a complete medical clinic to the cause. Other items needed are: school supplies, sports equipment and an ambulance.

Immodium, antibiotics, Tylenol, aspirin, topical antibiotic creams, antiseptics and general first aid supplies.
