  • I have participated with HART on two consecutive projects to Ghana, West Africa. Both trips were extremely successful. Not only did we perform operations on many patients, but the HART physicians provided valuable medical training to the Ghanaian physicians. With our experience and equipment, we were able to share medical knowledge and teach proper techniques and procedures in treating Buruli Ulcer. We transcended the culture barriers and worked together to save lives. These projects have been transforming experiences for the students as well. Not only do they gain valuable medical experience, but they are able to see the fruits of their fund-raising and leadership efforts. These are hardworking, dedicated volunteers who give of their time and money so that they can give service to others. I whole-heartedly support the efforts of the HART organization. They are doing a great service to mankind. Please consider their request for funding. A donation to this organization could save hundreds of lives.

    HART has been generously supported by NuSkin International, WHO, the Center for Disease Control and LDS Charities. HART conducts three main fund-raising events each year: a 5K Fun Run in Provo, Utah, a concert series in Salt Lake City, Utah, and a gala dinner in Provo, Utah. These events are also used to increase community awareness and involvement.
