Hospitals are always places of hope and pain, illness and recovery, joy and sorrow. Make it a children’s hospital, and emotions run higher and deeper. Make it a children’s hospital in a poor country — and you’ve got a place that needs help and love and commitment.
We’re really pleased to be able to place volunteers in the children’s department of a cancer hospital in Tanzania. You can help these kids make it through months of treatment, often crowded three to a bed, often unoccupied and restless and hurting. You can teach those who are well enough, assist the medical staff with data entry, and more.
You can make a real difference in the lives of some real kids going through some of the hardest things a body has to bear.
Those with medical experience may also be able to shadow the medical staff.
Thanks!
