Dear Fishy friends:

Some of you may recall that in 2010, I travelled to Tanzania as part of a two week medical mission. That experience was incredible – both exhausting and fulfilling. After two years, Africa is calling me again!
In April, I will head back to Tanzania and also to Uganda for a four week mission. As before, I will be working with both Canadian and local health care professionals to bring primary care to remote areas. I expect to see a lot of malaria, malnutrition, and STIs.  
As before, this is a voluntary effort and I must raise $6500 to pay for medical supplies and equipment, as well as my plane fare.
You supported me once before, and I hope I can prevail upon you to support me again.  There are two ways of doing this. Perhaps the easiest is to donate online, through my "Canada Helps" page. Click:

The other option is to print out a donation form and mail it to CACHA directly. Please PM me if you want me to email you a form.
Any amount over $20 will receive a receipt towards your taxes!
Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks in advance for your support to me, to CACHA, and the people of Tanzania and Uganda.
