Have a heart - Omshadiddle's Tanzanian blogging adventure
Story
Hello! My name is Kym Charlton and I am normally the Branch Manager Communications and Media at the National Disability Insurance Agency.
Our health system is pretty good in comparision to some countries around the world. That's why I am volunteering with Open Heart International, and using my time and skills to help. I will be travelling to East Africa, to Tanzania. There we are helping the people access healthcare that we take for granted.
Open Heart International has been coordinating projects like this for over 28 years. In excess of over 140 trips have been coordinated and over 5,000 lives have been transformed!
Luckily for everyone involved, my surgical implements will be limited to an iPad and a camera, as I tell the story of the talented team of volunteer surgeons and nurses as they use their skills to transform the lives of patients, and teach local teams.
By supporting this important work you are providing much needed funds to support the project costs including supplies, travel expenses, and equipment. Taking large teams and lots of equipment around the world doesn't come cheaply, so every single piece of support will help make a difference.
To donate, simply click on the Donate Now button. Your donation is secure via our internet portal, and you will receive your tax deductible receipt via email instantly.
Thanks for your support!
