Support Jen's Work in Nepal

Story

Hi all,
My name is Jen, and I am a midwife at Hornsby Hospital in Sydney.
I love my job, in fact I love my life and have very little to complain about. I have been going to Nepal since 2007 as a volunteer nurse as part of a reconstructive team which treats people with burn scar contractures. These experiences have enhanced my life in ways that I can barely put into words.
Burn Scars are a major health issue in Nepal, yet the cost of surgery is fairly cheap in comparison to Australia.  It costs the team approximately $750-$1000 for each operation.  That covers all the costs of the surgery and follow up care - the patient does not bear any cost.  In addition to this, there are the costs associated with taking a specialised medical team to Nepal to complete the surgery!
With no major government funding, this program is supported by volunteers' fundraising efforts and the generous donations of individuals and organisations.
By supporting this important work you are providing much needed funds to support the costs of surgery, and also to assist in the associated travel costs for me as a team member.
This year the team is hoping to give 40 Nepali's the gift of surgery that will totally transform the lives of the patient and their families.

How many Nepali's live can you afford to make a difference in today?
Please help me make a difference with a secure online donation. Thanks for your support.
