Spring 2007 - We are off in April 2007 with a team of two doctors, one trauma nurse, and eight medical students to Ddegeya Village, Uganda, to bring health care to the region for the first time ever. It promises to be a profoundly rewarding, life-changing experience for us and the villagers, and we're so excited!

Our fund raising goal is $20,000, much of which is for one-time-only expenditures - the essential infrastructure of our clinic - examination beds, curtains, medicine cabinets, office equipment, and the like.

In addition to providing urgently-needed medical care to the villagers in and around Ddegeya, we will be conducting needs-assessment studies to ensure we understand the priorities of the villagers' needs and are most responsible in our efforts.

We want to turn our compassion into action but will not be able to meet our goal without your help. Your contribution will be making a direct, tangible, immediate difference to the deserving villagers in this remote area of Uganda.
