Zomba, Malawi-Medical Mission Trip May 2017

I would like to thank everyone who contributed to the Malawi Mission dental fund for 2017. We were able to raise enough money to buy a compressor with suction, two portable dental units, a collapsible dental chair and 5 high speed hand pieces. Aspetico made a donation by reducing the cost of these items by 70%.


I also want to thank everyone who prayed for our mission. The team that I went with is called Villages in Partnership which is a non-profit organization in New Jersey. Their goal is to provide projects that are sustainable for the villages. We were able to bring real portable dental equipment to the providence of Zomba in Malawi. It was a true blessing and was the first step to increasing access of dental care to the villages. A dental therapist from Malawi and I provided care to 262 patients during the long clinic days. The medical team which was comprised of 25 people and broke into 4 clinics, saw just over 5,000 patients. Many lives were touched.



We are planning on returning in July of 2018 with a goal to bring more dental equipment and increase the sustainability of dental care in Zomba. I want to thank all of you who helped make this difference in the world.
