Two weeks ago the WOGO pre-trip team traveled to Arusha, Tanzania to meet with the hospital leadership and staff in preparation for our 2025 medical mission.
Tanzania is a beautiful place, and the people are warm and caring. We were so excited to return.
The WOGO team worked at Arusha Lutheran Medical Center (ALMC) in 2014. Tanzania was the site of our third medical mission. We return 11 years later – and we are very excited about this upcoming work.
During our visit we met with ALMC hospital leadership, toured the hospital and discussed patient numbers. There are many key items that need to be agreed upon before our trip.
We also spent some time meeting with the hotel, and testing out some restaurants. Our team will have a few group dinners together, and we want to make sure these meals are special for the group.
Lists are being made of the equipment we need to gather for the trip. Medicines, materials, implants and so much more. Beach balls will be ordered for our patients’ physical therapy support. All the little things that make the trip run smoothly. Then we will pack up and ship out our 9000 pounds of cargo so that it arrives in Tanzania before we do.
We are in need of many items for the trip, some of which we need to purchase. If you’d like to help us with these items, the cost of shipping and travel you can donate directly to WOGO online or using Venmo at @WOGO-Missions.
Lots to be done, so we’re off to work! Thanks for your support.
