I'm a Paramedic heading to Cambodia in August to volunteer in small clinics in remote villages. The work i will be doing is disease and health education as well as learning a bit about tropical medicine and medicine in not so well off countries.
As part of my research into Cambodia it came to light that there are a lot of children becoming very sick from preventable diseases - such as Hep B and Measles Mumps and Rubella. All money raised will be put toward a vaccination program for children.
