Surgical Mission Trip: Ghana 2019
My name is Jennifer Gray and I am a circulating RN in the operating room. I am actively fundraising to support a seven day surgical mission trip to provide care to the underserved community in Ghana, Africa with Operation International.
https://www.operationinternational.org/
Operation International (OI) is a non-political, humanitarian medical organization founded in 1996. OI provides free medical care to people in need as well as education and training to local health care workers during each of its medical missions.
We will be working in Holy Family Hospital in Techiman in the Brong-Ahafo region of Ghana. We will support the general surgery, obstetrics and gynecology, and head and neck service lines by carrying out elective and emergency procedures on some of the poorest people in the world.
On a personal note, this will be my very first mission trip and I am honored and excited to have been chosen! Prior to this trip, I did not even have a passport! This is a volunteer mission and I am responsible for 100% of the cost to participate. Your contribution will assist with travel expenses, a visa, and vaccines.
I greatly appreciate any and all support. Your generosity is invaluable!
Again, THANK YOU very much for your support.
Warmest Regards,
Jennifer Gray RN, BSN
