Our projects for the rest of 2018 are: 
 - upgrade of the Solar Heating Systems of 5 Homes for Children, the Elderly and Children with Special Needs in 5 towns in Albania. This will be done by our volunteer Construction Team, led by John Kehoe of Killarney. 
 - teaching visit of our Chairman, Mr Jack McCann to the Microsurgery Laboratory in Tirana, Albania. Jack will teach young Albanian and Kosovar surgeons the techniques of microsurgery. Microsurgery is an essential element of surgery and is used to work for procedures such as the reattachment of severed fingers.
