OI mission trip to Tanzania


April 17th
Babati, Tanzania

Project Description

We are a surgical mission team that will travel to Babati, Tanzania to provide surgical care to patients who do not have access to care.

Population Served

Patients who need surgical care in general surgery, ent or gynecology. This population in Babati lacks access to free surgeries and often cannot afford the life changing operations that will allow them to work or do their daily activities of living

Expected Impact

We expect to impact approximately 100 patients. We will plan to work with their local physicians to share knowledge so they are able to carry out some of these operations on their own as well as provide follow up through additional teams to care for future patients.


Trip Photos & Recap

In April our “team Chicago” had an amazing trip to Tanzania to provide surgical care at Manyara Regional hospital. We have done total of 60 cases and changed those patients lives. We also worked with local doctors in the clinics teaching them new procedures and protocols. It was an honorable experience!
