MEDICAL MISSIONS PROJECT

The Medical Missions Project will organize groups of healthcare providers from the U.S. and Canada to travel to Addis Ababa several times per year. These trips will support the overall mission of BNCO and the Medical Center and Health Education Project in three ways:

  • Augmenting the medical care that Ethiopian staff can provide at BNCO's Richard Oslund Memorial Clinic
  • Teaching Ethiopian providers new knowledge and skills to increase local capacity
  • Building solidarity and support between healthcare providers a world apart

    The first Medical Mission is planned for November 2009. Registration forms are currently being accepted! For information on participating, please download our Flier and Description, or attend our coffee ceremony and information session on January 11th, 2009.

    You can also support our Medical Missions via in-kind and financial donations. For in-kind donations, please see our Missions Wishlist.
