The team had full day of community outreach, deworming and distributing rice, mattresses, school supplies, and cherished soccer balls.
Volunteer nurse Jenessa Hall is on her second trip as part of a CSI team. Jenessa was excited to join CSI for this trip because of its unique outreach component. She reflects, “I’ve been an OR nurse for my entire career. For those that do this work, we get a very different form of patient interaction. Our patients are asleep most of the time they are with us, and while we are integral to their care, the majority of the time we are in the background. Going on this trip with CSI and getting to experience the patient side of things is incredibly rewarding. The children welcomed us with such warmth and were so appreciative of our time. My heart is so full in a way that I didn’t know existed. I can’t put into words the way that this experience will forever change my life.”
Great work, team! Tomorrow is patient screening day at the hospital.
Our advance team has been busy gathering supplies and mattresses and deworming hundreds of children at three schools. The rest of the 24-strong CSI team is arriving just in time for dinner tonight — ready for a day of community outreach tomorrow. Together, they’ll be deworming children and visiting three orphanages and the local market. 🩺✨ We’re endlessly proud of our incredible volunteers for making a difference every step of the way.

And away they go - our Minnesota team is off to Chicago where they will be joined by volunteers heading their way from Phoenix. The group will then fly to Brussels, connecting with one more volunteer before all flying on to Monrovia. Safe travels all! Meanwhile, the advance team of 9 is landing in Monrovia soon, after being delayed overnight in Brussels. Looking forward to the days ahead and the lives our team will forever change. 👏
They're off to change lives! Our advance team departed MSP Airport this morning and are en route to Liberia. Follow along to learn about the great work this team will be doing in the days ahead.
