Surgery in Turkana

Donation protected
Surgery in Turkana is a Spanish surgical project since 2004. We organize surgical camps in the Turkana area , north of Kenia , one of the poorest places around the world. Every year we move to Turkana, general surgeons, Ginecologist , Orthopedics , Maxilofacial , anesthetist  , logisticians and media staff.  We operate people in Turkana and we are their only hope to be assisted. We cover all expenses for the patients screening , something really important in a region without roads and communications. That means vehicles, fuel , screeners, food, mattresses , operations and transportation to the hospital , in Lodwar and back home.
In 2018 the group of doctors was 21 and 1 logisticians .
We also paid for the surgical staff , medicines , orthopedic supplies , accommodation and food for patients and doctors. This year we operated 262 people between Lodwar hospital and Kakuma Hospitals, Mission and Refugee camp hospital.
We need a lot of help to continue with our surgical camps and we hope that 'gofundme' will help us raise more funds with the help of all of us.
Thank you very much
