1. Thank you for considering a donation! This is my fourth medical caravan with CACHA to Ukerewe, Tanzania as a nurse practitioner.

We go to many different villages and work along with local care providers. Your support of this mission will provide individuals in need with dental care, eye exams and glasses, on the spot HIV, malaria and syphilis testing, surgeries, medications, and medical assessments. We pay for transportation, medical tests and hospital fees for those patients who require more care than we can provide. In addition, stipends are provided for our hardworking Tanzanian partners, who often join caravan while working shifts at their regular jobs. Their dedication and passion for caring for their fellow Tanzanians is truly humbling. Funds are also put towards a project that the locals have identified as highest need, which, for this mission, is the Lake Victoria Children’s Emergency Health Care Fund https://www.lakevictoriachildren.org/ . We have a close working relationship with this group and are happy to have a liaison join caravan to provide invaluable assistance in accessing resources for their vulnerable children.

I really appreciate your support as your donation will improve the health of people living on Ukerewe Island! Thank you.
