Medical Missions Trip to Costa Rica & Nicaragua! by Ify

Hello everyone!

My name is Ify Ude and I am a fourth year psychology/pre-med student at the University of Miami.  I just want to let you guys in a little bit about my next journey in life!  Recently, I have been given an amazing opportunity to participate in a medical missions trip through a program called VIDA.  This program provides undergraduate students with interests in the health field to actively work in impoverished communities - some with no electricity, running water, exposure to dust and heat - to improve the lives of the people who need medical attention and access to basic healthcare. This program has shown me a glimpse of the heart that people have for volunteering and a passion to serve others.  This is going to be an extremely humbling experience and, by God's grace, I will be able to gain enough support to carry on with the trip.  

College, although it has been a growing process and wonderful journey, has also taken a toll on my finances, but God has totally provided for me, as I hope He will for this trip.  Volunteering in mission trips has been my dream since I was a child, and now it can finally come to fruition.  The money raised for this trip will go towards my travel expenses and the entire expense for the mission trip.  So, please, I ask that you can consider donating to send me to Costa Rica and Nicaragua through VIDA medical missions!

Sincerely,

Ify Ude
