Med4OurWorld 2019 Mission Funding

Each year, Med4OurWorld travels to Tavueni, Fiji for two weeks to provide gynecological and surgical care to hundreds of women. This year, I am lucky enough to be joining their team for one week, assisting physicians and other healthcare professionals in their roles. This is a truly amazing opportunity both for my education as a medical student, but more importantly to use my medical knowledge (albeit small) to improve the lives of hundreds of Fijian women. 

In 2017, on their mission trip, Med4OurWorld saw over 100 patients, completed over 30 surgical procedures, and helped to renovate on-site housing for medical staff.  Additionally, each year, they strive to educate the permanent staff at the clinic, ensuring that the support of the organization lasts longer than the two week trip. 

As a participant on this trip, I have to fully fund my accommodations, flights, and food. As a result, I am asking you, friends & family, to help me help the women of Fiji! Any donation helps me in my goal, and of course any extra funds will be donated directly to Med4OurWorld. 

If you're interested in learning more about the organization and previous missions, check out the website here .  Additionally, Med4OurWorld is partnered with the Loloma Foundation, an organization striving to support medical and dental systems throughout the South Pacific. Their website is linked here . 

Any questions about my trip or donations, please reach out. Thank you so much for your time!

Best,
