And just like that, my time on the Africa Mercy comes to an end.
It’s been an incredible honour to work alongside such hard-working, selfless people—willing to give up so much to serve those with so little. So many Aussies and Kiwis here, all united by one goal: to help people live healthier, happier lives.
No matter where we come from, rich or poor, we all want the same things—safety, food, shelter for our families, and joy. Yet here I’ve seen diseases that should never exist in 2025… bowed legs from rickets, children so tiny because worms steal every calorie they eat.
This trip has been life changing. I hope it’s the first of many. There’s a place here for everyone—please, consider how you could help too. A chance to make a real difference and be part of something wonderful.
