The Rotary Club of Monrovia (RCM) over the weekend broke ground for the construction of a facility to house a medical grade oxygen production plant for ELWA Hospital. The Oxygen Plant project, which costs approximately US$200K, comes after nearly 4 years of fund-raising and project development by the Rotary Club of Monrovia, Rotary Club of Marlow and other Rotary Districts in the United Kingdom. The Oxygen Plant is one of two “Ebola Legacy projects” that is being implemented by the Rotary Club of Monrovia. When Ebola first arrived in Liberia in 2014, ELWA converted their chapel into an Ebola Treatment Unit (ETU). As the outbreak worsened, ELWA expanded its Ebola Treatment Unit into what would be called ELWA-2.
