Gratomic Donates Much Needed Oxygen Machines to Rural Clinics in Namibia's Karas region

On September 23, 2022, Gratomic Graphite, subsidiary to Gratomic Inc., donated 5 oxygen concentrator machines to the Berseba State Clinic in Southern Namibia. Berseba is a village in the Karas Region, situated approximately 100 km north-west of Keetmanshoop near the Brukkaros Mountain, a famous tourist destination.

During his speech, the former Governor stated that in fulfilling its social responsibility in such a meaningful manner,  Gratomic has performed a necessary service that few other mining companies have completed. He stated that this life-saving donation is significant because this village has been hit particularly hard by Covid-19 while facing a significant lack of equipment including oxygen machines.

Hon. Jeremias Goeieman, Regional Councillor of the Berseba Constituency and Member of Parliament, summarized Article 95 (j) of the Namibian Constitution, which states that the state shall consistently plan to raise and maintain an acceptable level of nutrition and standard of living of the Namibian people to improve public health. However, due to Namibia’s low population density approximately 21% of Namibians live more than 10 km from health care facilities and State Hospitals. He further stated that he was very pleased in the effort that Gratomic Graphite has made to assist the State in its attempt to improve public health in rural communities such as Berseba. In his final words, he stated that Gratomic has made a big impact in giving back to the community. He reminded the attendees that Gratomic donated 14 oxygen concentrator machines to the Kosis Clinic only a few months prior. He ended his speech by  thanking the Company for making such a difference to the lives of those in the surrounding communities.
