Dr. Mustapha Bittaye from the hospital was very happy about the new machine. He promised the charity that doctors would take excellent care of it and use it to help many women. The machine can help find cancer early, which gives patients a better chance of getting well.

Dr. Steven Bick from the charity shared his story about how he decided to help. He remembered meeting a local head teacher who wanted to do something good for The Gambia. With help from another charity, he brought the machine from the United Kingdom.

Dr. Bick said that finding cancer early makes a big difference. He hoped the machine would help many women stay healthy. The hospital doctors promised to take great care of it and use it carefully.

The charity wants to help Gambian hospitals become stronger. By giving medical equipment, they hope to improve healthcare and help people stay healthy. The mammography machine is an important tool that can save lives.

Doctors at the hospital were excited about the new machine. They know it will help them find health problems faster. Early detection means patients can get treatment quicker and have a better chance of recovery.

The donation shows how people from different countries can work together to help others. Charities like Sunshine With Smiles Trust make a big difference by supporting healthcare in places that need extra help.
