Anyone who knows me knows of my love for travel and caring for
others. The past three years I have been working towards my goal of
BSN and this year I get to combine my two passions. I am thrilled to
share that I have been selected to serve on a Global Health
Perspectives internship through the Denver School of Nursing (DSN)
traveling to Haiti in June 2017. This exciting internship partners
with the non-profit organization called Love Takes Root. DSN has
partnered with Barb Wilkerson, pediatric nurse practitioner and her
husband, Dr. Rick Wilkerson an orthopedic surgeon, that founded Love
Takes Root following the devastating earth quake in Haiti in 2010.
Please check out their website: http://lovetakesroot.org.
Our internship will focus on providing clinical care for orphans
and the surrounding community of Jacmel. While on the internship we
will scrub into surgery and assist in surgical needs at the local
hospital and partner with local Haitian college of nursing.
Most importantly, our goal is to empower Haitian health care
providers while teaching preventative healthcare practices in order to
enable Haitian families to thrive independently long after our
departure! I am so grateful for this chance to contribute my nursing
skills on a global level and would be deeply honored if you would
partner with me to raise funds to help me get there and support the
work of Love Takes Root!
My goal is to raise $2000 in the next 40 days! This money will
provide needed funds to donate medical supplies, equipment, and
program support for the Love Takes Root orphanage in 2017.
Every dollar helps and is greatly appreciated! I would love to
keep you posted as I prepare for, attend, and return from this life
changing experience. Please let me know if I can include you in emails
about this internship or any questions you might have at my email: mkribar@gmail.com.
Thank you so much for your thoughts, prayers, and donations!
Much love,
Michelle
