The Saulos Klaus Chilima Foundation gave medical equipment worth 16.7 million kwacha to Ntcheu District Hospital Tuesday. Mary Chilima led the donation one year after her husband died in a plane crash. The foundation donated hospital beds and suction machines to help patients receive better care. Eight other people died with the former vice president when their plane crashed at Nthungwa Forest on June 10, 2024. The family wants to continue Chilima's work of helping people across Malawi.

Mary Chilima brought her son Sean and family member Anna Sasuze to the ceremony. She said the foundation will expand beyond health care to education and youth skills training. The group raises money from public donations to support community projects. Ntcheu District Council health director Innocent Mhango thanked the family for the gift. The hospital serves accident victims along the M1 road before sending serious cases to Kamuzu Central Hospital.

The equipment will help staff at the hospital's new high dependency unit treat more patients. The Chilima family attended a church service earlier at Nsipe Catholic Church to remember the vice president. Foundation leaders plan to honor Chilima's memory through continued charity work. Hospital officials say the donation comes at the perfect time for their expansion plans. The medical supplies will save lives and improve treatment for thousands of patients.
