SINT MAARTEN (CAY HILL) - In a remarkable show of unity and service, all four Rotary Clubs on the island - Rotary Club of St. Maarten, Rotary Club of St. Martin Sunrise, Rotary Club of St. Martin Sunset, and Rotary Club of St. Maarten-Mid Isle came together to make a meaningful contribution to the St. Maarten Medical Center (SMMC).

The clubs collectively financed the purchase of four Anti-Decubitus Mattresses, specially designed to prevent bedsores and improve comfort for bedridden patients. These mattresses play a crucial role in enhancing patient care and ensuring a more comfortable recovery experience for those confined to their beds.

The official handover took place during the visit of District Governor Dr. William Aiken, who, being a medical professional himself, shared his appreciation for this impactful initiative. The presentation was made to the SMMC management team by all club presidents, along with the Assistant Governor – Elisia Lake, symbolizing the power of collaboration and service within Rotary.

“As proud Rotarians, we are always seeking ways to make a tangible difference in our community,” said the club presidents jointly. “Providing these mattresses aligns perfectly with Rotary’s mission of service above self, and as we approach Disease Prevention and Treatment Month in December, this initiative highlights our continued commitment to improving health and well-being across St. Martin.”

This joint effort stands as a testament to the shared vision and teamwork of all Rotary Clubs on the island working hand in hand to serve the community and bring comfort to those in need.
