<div>Swedish African Neurosurgery Collaboration (SANC)
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The association aims to pursue non-profit activities in the form of supporting the development of advanced neurosurgical activities in Africa. Operations are conducted through a bilateral intraprofessional exchange in neurosurgery, neuroscience nursing and related activities between the members of the association and the association's partners in Africa.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are now seeking funds to send a mobile CT-scanner graciously donated by Sahlgrenska University Hospital in Gotheburg, Sweden to Edward Francis Small Teaching Hopsital in Banjul, The Gambia.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The business must be conducted as non-profit organization voluntary trips called "charity medical missions" at the invitation of the association's partners in Africa, but can also include receiving people from these collaboration partners at a Swedish neurosurgery clinic or course with the specific objective of developing neurosurgery operations in Africa.
</div>
<div>The association can also mediate donations of new and used medical equipment and material from Swedish neurosurgery clinics or the association's partners to the association's partners in Africa.
</div>
<div>The association addresses people of all ages, regardless of background, with special commitment for the purpose above. The association must actively work to counteract all forms of discrimination.
</div>
<div>The Swedish Neurosurgical Society has contributed significantly to the formation of this association and will be a close collaborator with this association.
