Thousands will come. . . and it will change their lives

It was the day before our Gondar, Ethiopia, clinic opened, and already there was a line. Kebede spent the night outside in line with his family to make sure they were seen on Day One. They did not sleep because of the cold night air, and they had nothing to eat. Many people we met on opening day of our 2014 Gondar clinic had made an extreme effort to reach us and receive medical care. For most, it was their only opportunity all year.  And some came to us too late. Their illnesses were too far advanced. We lost some precious children to their illnesses because they had no access to medical care when they needed it most. But thousands will come to us this time, and a visit to the JVMI clinic will change their lives.

That is why we are going back. The task of conducting a medical outreach is enormous. We work all year to get everything in order, and we have one precious week to help these dear people. That’s why it’s so important that we go back with a full team of outreach partners, both medical and non-medical.

  Join Our Gondar Medical Outreach Team and Be the Difference!  

If we have a full team…

• More of these needy, beautiful people can receive medical care.
• More children will be healed of infections that could otherwise cost them their lives.
• More elderly men and women will be relieved of needless pain.
• More men and women will go from being blind to seeing again.
• More parents will survive to care for their children.

If we don’t have a full team…

• How many will we have to turn away on the last day?
• How many will succumb to their illnesses and injuries?
• How many will not be alive to visit us another year?
