Since I became a registered nurse (RN) I have always dreamed to be a part of a team where I would have the opportunity to make a difference and provide medical relief to those who need it most. I am honoured to say I have been given the opportunity to participate in a medical relief and education mission trip to Gautemala City, Guatemala, this October 2022 with members of Team Broken Earth Barrie. I will be volunteering with an incredible surgical team of doctors, anesthesiologists, and nurses to aid people in Guatemala that don't have access to the type of surgical treatments we have here. I am so grateful and excited for this opportunity to further expand my knowledge, skills and experience in my career. 

As you can imagine, a surgical mission to Guatemala is a huge undertaking, requiring vast resources and funds.  A major part of our preparation for this trip will be securing supplies and medications required to conduct as many as 70 surgeries.There is no inventory of supplies in Guatemala for us to use.  Everything we need, we must bring with us.

I have created my own fundraising page to collect donations in support of this effort.

Please help me reach my fundraising goals by clicking "Sponsor Me" to make a donation.

Thank you in advance for your generosity, I look forward to sharing my experience with you!
