Nepal Medical Mission
Tax deductible
On October 2, 2015 I will be taking the trip of a lifetime!! I am going with 2 physicians and 2 nurses on a medical mission to Nepal.
Since the devastating earthquake in April 2015, the Nepalese people have suffered and struggled even more than they usually do. They have lost loved ones and entire villages have been destroyed.
We will fly into Katmandu, then, take a smaller plane to Phaplu. From there we will have a 6 hour trek, on foot, up to the Taksindu Monastery where we will set up our clinic. We will be just 30 miles south from the base of Mount Everest!!! We will have a triage area, a clinic area, as well as a pharmacy.
We are hoping to evaluate and treat somewhere between 1500-2000 people while we are there. As well as train some of the 'jankri' or medicine men.
Some of the villagers have never seen a healthcare provider their whole life. Our patients will be coming anywhere from a 3 hours walk away up to a 3 days walk away, just to see us.
We are trying to raise funds to help offset the cost of the trip as well as to buy medications, dental hygiene supplies, reading glasses, and other medical necessities (such as blood pressure cuffs and blood sugar monitors).
Please consider giving to this most deserving cause.
No amount is too big, or too small. Anything you can give is greatly appreciated and will definitely be put to good use.
The Mission is directly associated with the Physician's Care Clinic - an indigent clinic in Decatur, and your contribution/donation is tax deductible.
