What a pleasure it is for us to be here today.\u00a0 I\u2019m Diane Watson.\u00a0 And these are my friends Misi Moshiri, Gill Fawthrop and Diane Cottrell. Thank you so much for welcoming us so warmly to JFK Hospital. This is my first trip to Liberia.\u00a0 Misi, Gill and Diane have all described the enormously positive energy of Liberia\u2019s people.\u00a0 I\u2019m absolutely delighted to experience it and feel it for myself.\u00a0 This truly is an exciting time for Liberia.<\/p>\n

Chevron is pleased and proud to be part of it. It means something special to me to be in Liberia standing in a hospital named after President John F. Kennedy. He once said something that applies so much to Chevron\u2019s commitment here today.\u00a0 He said that \u201cchildren are the world\u2019s most valuable resource and its best hope for the future.\u201d\u00a0 Chevron deeply shares that belief \u2026 which is why it\u2019s such an honor to partner with JFK Hospital to support its \u201cUnder Five Pediatric Program.\u201d We\u2019re proud to help bring healthcare to mothers and children who need it most, so that every child born here can have the chance to live a long and full life. As you can see, we\u2019ve brought with us some additional funds.<\/p>\n

Through these funds, we\u2019re delighted to support the work of Health Education and Research Through Training \u2013 or, appropriately enough, HEARTT \u2026 for short.\u00a0 With HEARTT and its president, Dr. James Sirleaf, we look forward to helping bring volunteer doctors \u2013 especially OB\/GYN doctors \u2013 to Liberia and JFK Hospital. To support both JFK\u2019s volunteer doctors and its focus on maternal care, we\u2019re also pleased to fund a new ultrasound machine \u2013 which will play a key role in the obstetric fistula project. Today, Chevron is also pleased to announce its support of Dr. Janice Cooper of the Carter Center.<\/p>\n

The Center will train workers who will help Liberia\u2019s Ministry of Health and Social Welfare implement the country\u2019s national mental health plan \u2013 by improving access to mental health services. We are so pleased and proud to support such important programs and such effective partners \u2013 JFK Hospital, HEARTT and the Carter Center.<\/p>\n

Let me close with a thought from another president, Liberia\u2019s president, Madam Ellen Johnson Sirleaf. It came during her inaugural speech.\u00a0 She spoke of the brightness of Liberia\u2019s future because of all the attributes Liberians possess.\u00a0 And, she said, \u201cWe have good friends who want to work with us.\u201d\u00a0 We \u2013 and all our colleagues at Chevron — are indeed proud to stand here as friends.\u00a0 And we\u2019re proud to work with all of you to give Liberia\u2019s greatest resource \u2013 its people \u2026 and especially its children — a greater chance at life. That is everyone\u2019s best hope for the future. And now, to help with the ribbon cutting \u2026 let me turn to Dr. McDonald.<\/p>\n

Thank you.<\/p>\n
