Dear Friends, Greetings & best wishes from Global medical foundation, USA. We have an exciting schedule planned for the upcoming year for our Medical and Surgical Missions. 1. ETHIOPIA: This mission is to be held in Butajira, Ethiopia. Butajira has a Community Hospital, where there is a tremendous need for Surgical and Medical Specialties. It is slated to commence on 12/29/2014 for a week. This is being led by Dr. Alemayehu Bekele who is a General Surgeon based out of Chicago. At the completion of the Mission Al is planning a visit to the RIF VALLEY, We are really in need of a Plastic Surgeon because a lot of patients have contractures from Burns. Please write to Al at .bekelealemayehu754@mail, or Michi Watanabe at [email protected]. 2. NEPAL & TIBET: A Medical/Surgical/Humanitarian Mission is scheduled to leave the United States on Friday April 3, 2015, the Mission/Camp will be held in Kathmandu and will extend through 04/10/2015. The post Mission trip is planned to include Pokhara followed by a journey to Lhasa Tibet, we plan to visit clinics everywhere we go. The entire trip will last for approximately two weeks. We will return to the US on 04/16/15 or 04/17/15. Participants, for all trips are being requested to contribute $250.00, to the GMF for expenses which will be incurred on the Missions. In addition a commitment fee of $300.00 is required of all participants which will be credited to each and everyone from the total cost. This is to ensure that people who sign up will actually travel with the group and not opt out at the last moment, which creates gigantic logistics nightmares for the organizers. Our liaison for this trip is Mr. K.C. Nabaraj (Raj), who is a Nepalese businessman in New York City. This trip is likely to fill up quickly, so please make your reservations with me or Michi at your earliest. Visas for Nepal are obtained at the Airport on Arrival in Kathmandu, Visas to Tibet require special permits from the Chinese Government thru the Tibetan Authority for this visit. We are hoping to travel to the Everest Base Camp North, but these arrangements are still pending. We require all Surgical Specialties, Medical Specialties, Primary Care Doctors, Gynecologists, Nurses, and support personnel. This is the initial communication, many more will be sent to those who plan to come as and when we become aware of various requirements. 3. PHILIPPINES & THAILAND: A trip is planned to LAOAG CITY, Philippines. November 5, 2015 through November 18, 2015. The trip to Laoag city will last for a week followed by a possible visit to Thailand to revisit The Myanmar Refugee Camps, near Mai Saring. This would require the permission of Pastor Joe, whose participation and permission would be a preliminary requirement. The anticipated cost of this will be approximately $2500.00. Dr. Chris Guerrero will lead this trip, please write to him at [email protected], or to Michi. Please join us for the cause to support & serve better, more information please contact us. Sincerely, Shivamurthy Keelara
