2022 completion of Angola airstrip by Bob Giesbrecht and Randy Reimer aids 100,000 in healthcare.

Longtime friends Bob Giesbrecht and Randy Reimer, from Steinbach, volunteered with Mission Aviation Fellowship in Angola, building an airstrip in Cavango. In 2022, they completed the project within two weeks, and it now serves as a lifeline for thousands of Angolans, providing essential medical supplies, transport, and emergency flights. Reimer and Giesbrecht's efforts have significantly improved access to healthcare services for roughly 100,000 people, alleviating the burden on local medical staff. The friends returned to Angola earlier this year to continue their aid work.
