Hi everyone! 
I am reaching out in hopes to gain support as I prepare to travel abroad this summer to Mombasa Kenya. I leave for this trip June 10th of 2023 and will return back to the United States on July 8th. During my time in Mombasa, I will be placed in Coast General Teaching and Referral Hospital, specifically in the departments of Pediatrics, Surgery, Maternity (Obstetrics and Gynecology), and Radiology. I will learn from professionals in the hospital about how to care for patients in these departments. During my time here, I will also have the opportunity to visit local schools, and teach the students about health, hygeine, and feminine health. 
Not only will I gain immense experience in the field that I plan to have a future career in, but I will learn to further understand the gaps that exist in healthcare that prevent many from receiving the care that they so desperately need. I will gain insight to problems that exist in high poverty areas, that do not have the resources they need to care for their community. I will also learn about the culture of Mombasa, as I will be given opportunity to go on cultural treks and learn about the area.
This trip will surely be one that I will never forget, and I need your help to achieve my goals and raise funds. I will appreciate all the support I can get as I prepare for this journey.
