Medical Mission Trip to Belize

Donation protected
I am joining my coworkers on a medical mission trip to Belize! As most of you know, I work in the emergency room at UF Health Jacksonville as a technician. While most of us spend more time at work than we do at home, we thought of a way where we could help others while working together and using our medical skills. A group of EMT’s, paramedics and nurses are teaming up and heading to Belize!

We will serve small villages in different regions of Belize. Most homes in these villages often lack basic provisions such as electricity and water. These families also lack the resources it takes to travel to the nearest healthcare facility. 

We will be traveling October 15th-23rd. 


Here's the breakdown...

Going on a medical mission trip is something that I have always desired to do. When this opportunity presented itself, I couldn't turn it down. Being a recent graduate, it is extremely difficult to come up with these funds alone. Please join me in anyway you can, whether it's spiritually or financially! I would be grateful for any amount in helping me get to Belize!
