Straughan Foundation Delivers $250,000 Medical Donation to BDF Medical Facilities

The Belize Defence Force (BDF) was presented with a substantial donation of medical supplies and equipment valued at over $250,000 Belize dollars from the Straughan Foundation. The ceremony, held at Price Barracks in Ladyville, was attended by distinguished guests from various sectors, including officials from the Ministry of National Defence and Border Security, representatives from Build Belize Inc., and key members of the Belize Defence Force.

This donation is set to bolster the operational capabilities of the BDF Force Hospital, which has been working to update and expand its inventory. Although representatives from the Straughan Foundation could not attend, their generous contribution underscores a commitment to Belize’s healthcare and national security. 

The BDF issued a statement saying, “The BDF extends its deepest gratitude to the Straughan Foundation, Build Belize Inc., and the Ministry of Tourism and Diaspora Relations for their invaluable support and dedication. This donation not only strengthens the Force Hospital’s capacity to serve but also reflects the profound impact of collaborative efforts in advancing Belize’s national interests.”
