Tanzania 2025
The Mission:
This is a medical mission trip intended for students with interest in pursuing a career in the medical field, though no medical experience is necessary. The main objective is to help the Masai people spiritually, physically, mentally, and emotionally. The team will assist doctors and nurses as well as work in stations including vitals, pharmacy, glasses, and spiritual. There may also be an opportunity to participate in a VBS with a local church. Excursion will include a safari and shopping. The team will also stay at a nice lodge the night of the safari.
The Travel:
You can expect to spend LOTS of time traveling to/from Tanzania. It will typically be 2 flights with one being 9-15+ hours. You will need a passport.
The Accommodations:
The team will stay at a local hotel with 1 to 2 roommates per room. Each room has its own bathroom and shower (with hot water). The hotel provides breakfast and dinner. They will have food like fruits, juice, coffee, breads, breakfast meats. You can expect beef, chicken, starches for dinner. You bring your own lunch to the clinic so you'll need to pack protein bars, etc.
