Patrizia Cacchione

This will be my third time traveling to Tanzania and second medical mission with the Canada Africa Community Health Alliance (CACHA). CACHA is a non-profit, non-governmental organization, dedicated to improving the health of rural African communities of Tanzania, Benin and Uganda.

To participate in a CACHA medical mission is both an honour and privilege. I’ve seen firsthand the impact that our work has on the community and the indelible imprint the Maasai people have left on my heart.

I will work with an esteemed group of physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, pharmacists, pharmacy technicians and logisticians (like myself ) to provide the local people with an array of free health care services including primary health care, eye exams, reading glasses, HIV/Malaria/Syphilis testing, dental care and medicines.

Funds raised will help procure supplies in-country such as, but not limited to: medical, dental, laboratory, logistical, and much needed medication, etc. CACHA is a registered charity and issues tax receipts.

If you can, a donation would mean the world to me and those who are waiting for us in Tanzania this February 2025. xoxo
