Send Lauren to Volunteer and Work in Tanzania
My Travel Story
I am planning a two-week trip to Morogoro, in Tanzania, in August 2016, with Gap Medics. While there I will be gaining valuable work experience shadowing a doctor in a local hospital. As well as this, I will be volunteering in the local orphanage.
WHAT IS GAP MEDICS?
Gap Medics provides medical work experience
placements in exciting locations overseas to
students between 16-25.
WHY SHOULD YOU SPONSOR ME?
Your sponsorship will allow me to take part in this program, which will give me a real insight into my chosen career, help make my UCAS application stand out from the crowd, and give me great talking points for interview. Above all, I will benefit from gaining an in-depth understanding of the disparities in global healthcare.
WHAT WILL I BE DOING OVERSEAS?
I will spend time shadowing experienced doctors on ward rounds and in surgery, learning about the differences between healthcare at home and in developing countries overseas. In my free time, I will have the opportunity to volunteer at the local orphanage, and visit sites of cultural interest.
WHERE WILL YOUR MONEY GO?
Your money will help me to pay for my placement with Gap Medics. This includes my hospital placement, accommodation, food, in-country and UK support, and of course, a donation to the hospital.
If you don't have a Paypal account, and are not wishing to create one, but would still like to donate, then please contact me directly on:
lauren.blake.1999@hotmail.co.uk
I would also be happy to accept cash/cheque if this is more convenient
