Support Nursing in Africa
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Hadley. I am finishing up my third semester of nursing school. My expected graduation date is December 2024. Until then I'm finding ways to spend my summer. I am looking for more experience in the medical field to expand my skills as a nurse but also to share my knowledge.
I've found an opportunity to go to Kenya, East Africa, with an organization called International Medical Aid. They take students like me abroad so that we can experience healthcare on an international level. We get to shadow doctors and physician assistants as they work with people who live in remote areas and who don't get the medical care they need. I'll also get to work in field medical clinics and hygiene education programs. My confirmed departments are maternity and pediatrics. For me, going to Kenya feels like the opportunity of a lifetime.
While I am in nursing school full time it is difficult for me to work as much as I want too. I have been able to save money and cover the program deposit fee, entry processing fee and the flight there and back.
My goal amount of $3,000 would help me cover most of the program fee for 2-Weeks in Mombasa, Kenya.
I appreciate you taking the time to read. If you have any questions, I would love to talk more about it, thank you! <3
