Sept. 23 Annual Gala *VENUE CHANGE* due to weather — See details
Team NY has completed their second mission in Tanzania, performing an amazing 90 surgeries in just five days. During their time in the country, the team also donated food to a local orphanage and checked on patients who had received care during Team Chicago's visit to Tanzania earlier in the year.
Operation International’s Team NY carried out their first mission to Tanzania in 2016, where the impact they left behind was immense. Since then the team has worked with the local charities and different localities to establish a permanent base there where other teams could go on annual basis. In 2023 a new hospital was built, Lake Tanganyika District Hospital, to serve the communities living near Katavi National park, but the hospital lacked many of the needed equipment and staff needed training before it can start serving anyone. Operation International procured all needed equipment and Team NY intend to make that hospital one of their bases in East Africa.
