About
The McKenzie Center for Innovation and Technology squad aims to improve health care access and sanitation infrastructure for children in under resourced communities abroad. Students will travel abroad to conduct mobile health clinics for children that include primary health care, vision and dental screenings. They will also learn about and address some of the systemic issues behind preventable diseases in the community by implementing health workshops and building handwashing stations alongside local students.
How You Can Help
This squad has a donation goal to help cover logistical expenses while abroad such as transport, local staff, meals, insurance, accommodations, but most important, the year-round follow-up to the project by local staff to ensure the sustainability over time. To help raise funds, students have teamed up with DoneGood an ethical & sustainable marketplace.
When you use code MCKENZIE at checkout, 20% of your purchase will be donated to this fundraiser.
