Join Me in Making a Difference: Volunteer Mission to Uganda
Helping those in need has always been my dream, especially in regions where healthcare is scarce. I'm thrilled to announce that I have been selected as part of a volunteer team heading to Uganda in February 2025 to provide medical, dental, and chiropractic care!
Why This Mission Matters
I'm honored to be part of this initiative where we will not only treat patients but also teach and conduct research. Bridge to Health focuses on sustainability, ensuring that our efforts have a lasting impact. We train local medical officers to manage cases they encounter daily, particularly in musculoskeletal pain management, an area with limited resources.
Chiropractors can offer invaluable skills that don't require expensive equipment or medication. By teaching medical officers how to take comprehensive histories, conduct physical exams, and prescribe basic rehabilitation exercises, we empower them to continue providing quality care long after our team has left.
My Journey of Volunteering
My passion for volunteer work began as a child in the Girl Guides and has continued with organizations like Scouts and Women Chiropractors. Now, I am proud to volunteer with Bridge to Health. This mission is a continuation of my commitment to serving others, and I am excited to contribute my skills and knowledge.
How You Can Help
To make this mission possible, I need your support. Your donations will help cover the costs of flights, food, and lodging, allowing us to focus on delivering care to those in need. While I will cover other expenses such as my Toronto office, insurance, and travel medical costs, your contributions can significantly offset the main costs of the trip.
Every Contribution Counts
No amount is too small. Each donation brings us closer to making a tangible difference in the lives of many. Please consider supporting this cause and helping us bring essential healthcare services to Uganda.
