Dr Doug Burns, Alumni for Mercy Ships, will be sharing his experience along with how Mercy Ships is helping people in Africa. Mercy Ships operates the world's largest charity hospital ship-providing free life-changing surgeries and training in Africa. Staffed by a volunteer crew, every dollar we receive is leveraged by gifts-in-kind from corporations and volunteers so that it provides $3 of health care for every $1 raised. To date, in 40 years, we have directly touched the lives of more than 2.6 million people providing over $1.3 billion in free health care.
