Medical Elective in St Joseph's Hospital

Hi, I'm Rose a Fourth Year Medical student at Queen's University Belfast. This Summer, I will be volunteering in St Joseph's Hospital Moshi at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, as part of my medical elective.

Tanzania is a resource strained country with a weak healthcare system which is challenged by high maternal mortality, child mortality, HIV/AIDS, pneumonia, and malaria. Tanzania’s population also has some of the lowest rates of access to health personnel in the world.

I'm raising funds to provide support for patients and their families and put towards lifesaving medical equipment.

As they say, every little helps!
