Welcome to my fundraising page!
First and foremost, I'd like to thank you for visiting my page in the interest of learning more about my fundraising and volunteering efforts.
During Thanksgiving week in November 2012, I traveled to Nicaragua for my first medical relief trip with the Foundation for International Medical Relief of Children (FIMRC), a global non-profit organization dedicated to improving the lives of children worldwide by providing medical care and health education. It would be an understatement for me to say it was an extraordinary experience! I've compiled a few pictures and videos on my Tumblr Blog about my past venture and I look forward to sharing my Peru experience (but with more detail) in the near future on there.
While I was in Nicaragua, I questioned how the people living in the small community would have managed if FIMRC and their volunteers were not available to them. As much as I had set out on making a positive impact, I returned with my eyes widened with experience and my heart burning to learn more about how I can be the best doctor I can be in the future.
As you may already know, I'd like to travel on another medical relief trip to Huancayo, Peru this summer with FIMRC. I plan on being in June 4 - July 2, 2016 with the Summer International Health Fellowship Program. It is a more medically immersed experience where I will have the opportunity to shadow hospital physicians, perform rotations alongside Peruvian medical students along with executing health campaigns, interacting with patients, and scrubbing in for surgeries.
In order to volunteer in Huancayo, Peru, I need to raise a donation of $3356 which will go directly to this cause and to FIMRC in order to maintain stocked pharmacy shelves, operating community health outreach programs as well as ensuring the clinic is operating successfully for the people it serves. FIMRC is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based in Philadelphia, PA. As such, your donation in support of my volunteer experience will be fully tax deductible, and you will receive an e-mail of confirmation from the Foundation’s headquarters acknowledging your donation and containing a receipt for your records.
I hope that you will consider supporting me by contributing towards my fundraising goal! Not only will this allow me to participate in this wonderful experience, but it will also allow you to actively contribute to the work that FIMRC is doing to drastically improve the lives of underserved people around the world. Thank you in advance for any support you are able to provide. I am truly appreciative for any and all contributions!
If you can't make a donation at this point, please help me reach my goal by sharing this page. Also, feel free to contact me about any questions, concerns, or comments you might have.
Sincerely yours,
Natasha

Bem vindos para a minha pagina!
Querida Família e amigos,
Como vocês já devem saber, eu estou planejando viajar para o Peru em 2016 para outra viagem de assistência médica com a Fundação Médica para o Alívio Internacional de Menores (FIMRC), uma ONG dedicada a melhorar a vida de crianças em todo o mundo através do fornecimento de assistência médica e educação sobre saúde. Minha experiência com a FIMRC me permitirá saber mais sobre os problemas médicos enfrentados por países em desenvolvimento, e me dará a oportunidade de fazer a diferença na vida de crianças carentes.
Durante a semana de Ação de Graças em novembro de 2012, eu viajei para a Nicarágua para a minha primeira viagem de assistência médica com a FIMRC. Foi uma experiência extraordinária! Eu compilei algumas fotos e vídeos no meu blog do Tumblr sobre a minha aventura e estou ansiosa para compartilhar minha experiência no Peru com vocês.
Como voluntária da FIMRC, eu me comprometi a levantar fundos para a minha viagem, e minha meta é de 3.356 dólares. Esse dinheiro será utilizado para manter farmácias abastecidas, para operar programas de saúde na comunidade, e para contratar profissionais de qualidade para prestar atendimento às comunidades carentes que a FIMRC serve. A FIMRC é uma organização não-governamental e sem fins lucrativos com sede em Filadélfia, EUA. Se você for residente dos Estados Unidos, a sua doação será dedutível no seu imposto de renda, e você receberá um e-mail de confirmação da sede da Fundação reconhecendo a sua doação e contendo um recibo para os seus arquivos.
Eu espero que vocês considerem me apoiar para que eu alcance a minha meta! Isso não só me vai permitir participar dessa experiência maravilhosa, como também permitirá a você apoiar a FIMRC e seu esforço para melhorar a qualidade de vida de pessoas carentes ao redor do mundo. Obrigada desde já por todas e quaisquer doações que vocês são capazes de dar! Como um pequeno gesto de minha gratidão, eu visitarei um mercado local e enviarei uma lembrança peruana em honra da sua contribuição para o endereço que você preferir.
Caso vocês tenham quaisquer dúvidas, por favor não hesitem em me contatar ou contatar a FIMRC diretamente através das opções de contato abaixo!
Mal posso esperar para compartilhar minha experiência com vocês!
Atenciosamente,
Natasha
