Nepal is located in a vulnerable environment, susceptible to natural disasters including the Gorkha, which was a 7.8 magnitude earthquake in April 2015. The medical camps for the trip are designed to assist the Nepalese people who were greatly impacted by the devastating earthquake. Because the villages you will visit are remote, they have not benefited from the aid that larger areas have seen. 
For this trip, we will serve the people living in small communities close to Kathmandu.

At the medical camps, you will treat respiratory conditions, neonatal disorders, heart disease, and diabetes. You will also help to administer vaccinations and help treat conditions related to unsanitary drinking water.
One of the main focuses of this mission is education. Because many of the patients you treat will be inflicted by chronic illnesses, we will want to help them to understand the best strategies for self-care.

Your generous donation of $3550 will go toward the ongoing global relief to care for the underserved and vulnerable people of this community. As a member of this medical mission team, you will elevate the long-term impact of sustainable, capacity-building efforts that improve the health, wellness, and quality of life of those most in need. A small portion of your donation includes:

• Clinic supplies and medications for patients
• Clinic participation
• Transportation, accommodations, and meals as outlined in the itinerary
