"Bridging The Gap" is a non-profit, 501(c)3 organization. It was founded approximately 10 years ago and it seeks to reduce the incidence of malaria in children in the village of Owerri. I am traveling to Nigeria with a team of 6 people - one physician, four RNs (one of which is Steph, one of my very best friends), and one non-medical support person. We have been assured that we will have plenty of work to do during our time there. Ben is our main contact person in the village and he has arranged our scheduled. In our communications with Ben leading up to our visit, we made it clear that we want to work hard. In looking at our schedule, I think we will be plenty busy! I can't wait. I'm anxious to know exactly what we will be doing so that I can share it with you. I think it'll mainly be performing screening for malaria in the kids of the village.
