Cardiac surgery charity mission, JKCI, Tanzania, 2025

Hi, I'm Grainne, a nurse from Galway, and I need your support for an incredible mission. I volunteer with Cardiostart International, a brilliant charity committed to expanding cardiac surgery programs worldwide.

CardioStart’s intent is to teach the local doctors and nurses advanced cardiac care, elevating surgical outcomes and overall patient care long after CardioStart volunteers depart the country.

In October, I will embark on a vital cardiac surgery mission to Tanzania, concentrating on complex aortic surgery. Tanzania is a country facing significant challenges in accessing life-saving cardiac procedures. With your generous contribution, we aim to make a lasting impact on Tanzania's healthcare landscape.

Tanzania, is a beautiful country with a population exceeding 60 million. However its people face significant challenges in accessing cardiac surgery. Limited resources and access to specialized medical care make cardiac surgery an unattainable luxury for many Tanzanians. The mission seeks to change that narrative.

Join me in making a difference! Together, we can contribute to building a sustainable cardiac surgery program in Tanzania, ensuring a brighter and healthier future for the people of this remarkable country.

Your contribution will directly fund my journey to Tanzania, covering essential expenses such as flights, visa fees, and associated costs. By supporting this mission, you're not only helping me get there but also playing a crucial role in bringing life-saving cardiac care to those in need.

Every donation, no matter the size, brings us one step closer to making this mission a reality. Thank you for being a part of this impactful journey!
